Wonder if there might be plans for a second batch at some point in the new year which has been flipped with it coming North instead depending on what happens with the 55 with Darlington getting all 14 now to oust the remainder of the 08/58 scraps out who to be fair are desperate for investment and having a mix of Enviro 200's and Solo's on the same routes is a bit of a marketing nightmare.

Or alternatively order a batch of midibuses which are 10.5m or so for the 1, 2, 55 and 57/57A and get arid of the two small fleets of Pulsars and minibuses to allow a bit more flexibility especially since the 1 and 2 probably don't need full length singles either.
