Will end up with Pulsars in reserve/heading to Yorkshire but apparently Arriva have won tenders to bring back the X16 and extend the 57A to Ashington, so some will be kept back for that in October.
EcoCitys are going to be withdrawn and sold, not Runcorn as anticipated.
A small number of 'other' movements will also take place to align fleet, simplify types and start to withdraw E200s and more Solos.u
Interesting thank you… the only other ones I can think of who run the MAN Ecocity is Go Ahead…?! I wonder if just the NE batch are going or if NW are looking to offload theirs too?
Simplifying fleet members makes sense especially as the fleet is ageing somewhat.
