Consett issue is that they seem to be at full pelt given other services are short of PVR.

Then the pressure to get them back on the road too especially if short of other low height deckers or Streetlite/E200MMC to cover the X30s/X70s

Consett have struggled since the PVR increases back in July 2024. Hopefully B9TLs from the 56 and 307/309 (if latter get cascaded StreetDecks from the 21) will help sort some of Consett's issues. The latter B9TLs have spent most of their life just pottering around North Tyneside so will have plenty of life left in them.
