If it's 6050, looks like they've gone grey for the Crusader - i do wonder if they'll go for a small refurb to add USB ports and new seats, to be in-line with the current Citaro's on the route.
Wonder where the Citaro's will end up? - they'll be 14 spare (+2 currently being used on the H service, and 1 spare - due to changes)
Edit:
I have a feeling we won't see the CAZ zone for a few years now - due to the current crisis, its impossible to get services ready in time for the end of 2021.
Withdrawn is the only realistic place for them, there's only the Sunderland routes or the 11, 19 and 42 where they could realistically go as they're the only routes that avoid Newcastle and it's either overkill or a downgrade.
