Other withdrawals
8 Vykings
21 Presidents
I can’t see any of Citaro’s going yet, apart from 5481- 5487, because the others have just been refurbished and most have been repainted.

When you get rid of the Omnicities and the older Versa (which tbh need replacing), there's not much left to move/withdraw... i do wonder if any of the Solo routes will get upgraded though?

Numbers probables wrong.... its just guessing
Tbh i didn't know which Omnicities were just in a spare role and we're already replaced.
It is interesting in regards to fleet standardisation, with E400 being allocated to X84/X85, when TVT is upgraded, no doubt we may see E400 being acquired for this route too
