Realistically, the 4 cylinder StreetDeck is probably more than good enough for most of GNE's routes that are currently ran by the B9s.Out of all GNE's decker routes, I'd probably categorise the following as to whether or not they're suited to an ADL E400MMC or OM934 StreetDeck.
These are NOT order predictions / suggestions by the way but simply a categorisation of routes vs suitable vehicle types.
OM934 StreetDeck
1A/1B, 21, 25, 26/27, 56, 309/X39/310/311, X5/X15, X30(*LH*), X31, X45, X46, X47
*LH* - Would need to be low height
ADL E400MMC
10/10A/10B/10X, X21, X70/X71, X84/X85
OM936 StreetDeck
X9/X10 (but now a coach operation) and perhaps only in another set of circumstances but I won't go into that on here as it would end up off topic!
