Regardless of the explanations, I understand that changes due to Covid might have prevented mass rota changes, it seems poor to be promoting evening journeys, X-Lines, etc yet to not make the effort to ensure vehicles matching the advertised spec were available for Riverside to allocate to the evening X30 for the past 18 months.
The evening X30 was, on paper, allocated refurbished Mercedes Citaros. In terms of customer spec, these pretty much represent the same advertised specification of an X-lines route. Indeed, over at Deptford, Citaros of the same specification are allocated to the X20... So that's not the right argument to make!
The point remains that it wasn't an X-lines branded bus, however, and this has been addressed at the earliest opportunity. Unless interdeck coaches were allocated to the X30 on an evening, Riverside don't have any other X-lines branded buses available.
