Luckily as has been said previously GNE have a plan to move 6331-33 to Chester-le-Street now they are surplus to requirements on the X45/6, and there’s your appropriate spare vehicles for the 21/X21.

What's the plan for fixing the breakdowns on the 69 service? - seems like there is one ever day (far more than other routes)
