It's just odd the allocation with the last 8 65 Plates seem to be coming up which conveniently matches up with the 59 Plates (which some do have technical issues or aren't here yet).
There doesn't seem to have been any effort to shift the 08/SP09 plates and ALX300's at all though. Not to mention that there's 13 Single Decker's on DD operated boards again today which ironically is the number of non compliant buses in the CAZ today. The Decker's will definitely be displacing singles though.
I just quickly worked this out so might be slightly wrong but currently the depots for singles are:
Slatyford: Single PVR 53, Compliant Buses 53 (assuming 8 come from Stockton)
Walkergate: Single: PVR 5, Compliant Buses 13
The buses are here to do both routes already with 8 spares which is way more than enough for a PVR of around 60.
