No issues with 7424 and 5 because lately they've been allocated to the 62. 

7401 is still on the road. 
7610 only managed a day and now 7609 is off the road parked at the back of Redcar depot facing the fence 

So some decent investment is needed for the routetem like 6 cylinder or potentially go back to having coaches on the route. There is a wide range of disabled friendly coaches out there. Whilst at it source some older buses for the park and ride and some new mini buses for the 95&6
