It's a reason why you rarely see them with other operators with them bar a few Volvo Merit's to hide what they were really were - they're actually Cadets.
Shame as they're superior vehicles aswell.
Also all 3 operators have:
Enviro 400 MMC's: Arriva at Ashington; GNE at Riverside and Consett; and Stagecoach at Statyford and Walkergate
Enviro 200 MMC's: Arriva at Darlington; GNE at Riverside; and Stagecoach at Slatyford and Stockton
Enviro 400: Arriva at Ashington, Durham, Blyth, Walkergate, Durham and Darlington; GNE at Riverside, Consett and Deptford and Stagecoach at South Shields, Walkergate, Slatyford, Stockton and Sunderland
