(Yesterday, 12:05 pm)Kuyoyo wrote Two of Durham's E400MMCs are earmarked for Whitby Park and Ride should Arriva retain the contract. Likewise, the rest are also earmarked for transfer to Darlington once Durham's electrics arrive next year, allowing the withdrawn of the 09 plate E400s there as well as a number of Pulsars to allow an increased decker allocation at the depot.
Yeah that's fair, had a feeling that might have been the case, guessing it's the Ashington vehicles which will be replacing stuff instead then, rather than electrics as it doesn't work otherwise.
I'm going to put this out there and guess that something is going to end up at Whitby for the X93/X94 (no doubt ex Ashington) with the B9TL's heading elsewhere, probably Durham if the MMC's are all heading to Darlington since something is needed there as having newer buses on the P&R doesn't make sense?
