7510/1/2 are reserve for further use if required elsewhere - but given their height and age, more than likely be withdrawn.
The B7s are indeed withdrawn.
Thanks for confirming, had a feeling that something would've went to Darlington. Mind surprised that Durham needs more deckers but what do I know.
(16 Oct 2024, 1:27 pm)PH - BQA wrote Seems like a net increase in vehicles overall for Durham (14 in, 13 out composed of 5x B7TLs, 3x Pulsars, 7510-2/17/21), and an increase in overall capacity. Has there been an increase in passenger loadings on their services?
They're a few buses down, you've forgot the last few E200's have just recently left down to Yorkshire with nothing replacing them.
