Will be a very new experience for Arriva Blyth doing proper allocations. For GNE riverside they will lose a lot of spares for the X21 and X10 which currently are often 67 plate streetdecks. Wonder what will be the backs ups then, especially for X21, as for the X10 they will probably still use the 20 plate streetdecks.
MIght mean all the old stuff goes on the X21 if Riverside lose the 67 plates.
To be fair the 308 Hybrids had the same condition, and they wandered very fast.
GoNorthEast will probably keep them on the 21 though to be fair. Isn't it more because the Streetdeck's are knackered more than bad allocations, sure someone mentioned it awhile back?
