Maybe a few more deckers for the X12 if it continues long term to Newcastle and they missing an opportunity not to promote the fact they go to Eldon Square, so maybe deckers with route branding and possibly a faster service alongside the X12. They need to look at replacing the 08 plate solos and possibly the E200 on the 57 57A but other than that most of the fleet seems fine.
I never use them but surely the following are high priority:
- The Wright B7TL's at Durham / Redcar
- 55 Plate B7TL's on the X46/X93/X94 (don't need to be withdrawn but should be in spare role not frontline service)
- Omnicities on the X66/X67, X26/X27, X75/X76
- 57 Plate Centro's at Stockton or wherever they're at now.
They're all getting on now and the Omnicity's are horribly unreliable.
