58 certainly seems busy when I often see it leaving Durham so possibly although no confirmation as to what they'll be used on yet, can see them going on 108/109 myself (and whatever else) as they are often busy as well.
Few other updates at Scarlet Band are:
SB10BUS is currently off the road whilst it has a Cummins engine fitted (replacing the unreliable MAN engine).
VU52UEF and MP53ZTW have left the fleet.
It does get very busy - was sometimes difficult to find a seat getting on at Thornley, Durham bound. Hopefully the versas will be more comfortable than the E200s and more reliable than GNE's versas!
