(26 Jul 2023, 11:52 am)Mr Alx300 22062 NK54 BFF wrote I think it would have been a better idea to withdraw buses like 22885/7/9 at Stockton as reliably is terrible, they should give some of the alx a second chance. 22409 is past it and so are the 224s but 22412 deserves a second chance and given that 22428 is beachball and can donate to 22347. 22347 should be given a second shot too.
You are aware that 22428 can't really donate parts to 22347 - as it's the same as the E300-bodied examples, rather than the older ALX300s. The YN07s are unique examples of the MAN 18.240 chassis with ALX300 bodywork - mainly because at that time, ADL were still re-designing the E300 to match the E200Dart (as it was known then) and the E400.
