StreetDecks aren’t suited to a route like the X21, that has been proven. Pointless running the risk with newer StreetDecks where the exact same could happen again.

If they're supposedly unsuitable for the X21, then surely the same argument could apply for the X1 given the intensity of the operation (considering an E400MMC was initially trialled in Dec 2018 before WrightBus' issues and an eventual order was placed before they ended up at Consett).
Unless the B5TLs are off the road due to engineering & parts shortages?
