Really don't agree with Deptford getting refurbished Citaros !!!!

Services X5, 9 and 35 all have/are getting them, but they are NOT used on Evening/Sunday, when incorrect branded Streetlites are used.

Refurbished Citaros should go on routes that use correct branded buses at all times, ie Loop and Green Arrow.

A better solution would be to tidy up 5218-28, repaint and brand as Black Cats.

Really think that 5377-84/5385/90 should be repainted and branded Green Arrow, with 5389 as spare (beamish)
with 5306-09/5323-6 for Citylink58 (5305 spare),
and 5328-36 repainted black for loop 93/94 (5327 spare).

In addition
8306 to Chester for 34/34A (leave as GNE corporate)
8307/08 on to South Tyne 88/88A, with 8309 as spare (leave as GNE corporate)

5229-32 to Percy Main for service 19 plus 5210 as spare
4978-82 to Riverside for 67/69 (4+1 spare)

5387/8 all get purple Q1/2 branding,
8316/17/18 get green Q3 branding, allowing same batch on Q3
5385 repainted for Green Arrow, with 8335 taking its place on Q1/2 allocation (kept as pride)
