They'd be a good upgrade for a route elsewhere rather than running around as spares pretty much really. 

The 4 would be the obvious one, displacing out the Mercs and there's 10 of both. Be a decent upgrade really, unlike Streetlites but I get the arguments for keeping all the Enviros together aswell.

Nowhere else really in the fleet they'd fit anyway with a PVR of 10 unless you went for a weekday interworking of the 6/12 but I don't think that will work as I am of the understanding the existing 10/12 interworkings Monday to Friday have no weekends involved for Drivers to work on this rota. 

Either way your going to have a Depot with a mixed allocation of E200's and Streetlites whether that be Consett or Washington, only other suggestion I would make would be the 78 with the service extending to Delves replacing the V1 which would oust the 63 plate Solos that remain, the V2 could be merged into one of the X45 boards seeing off the remaining Solo. 

Then you have further Streetlites free to be permanently allocated to the 6 with the remaining being allocated elsewhere as Consett currently have 15 Streetlites in total at the moment which there PVR, likely some of these will not be needed soon.
