The B9's would be good as spares for Consett for the 47 and others if needed since they can get under the bridge and maybe to run the peak X21/X58 and 327 which all need something. They can't be using Omnidekkas and the ex Lothian B9's like they do now.
Some full height deckers can, but it's very tight and involves going in the middle of the road.
