Replaced the Coaches with 5 year old OmniCitys in 2010 then when they withdrew the X60/X61 trialled the E400s which were successful with the loadings. Last summer they moved permenantly to Whitby but they struggle to cope. Hence the trial of 7624 but without even trialling the B7TLs they've gone for those (7494 is now at Redcar, the originally intended 11 are now coming with 3 for Ashington, 6 for Whitby and 2 for Jesmond to replace the 2 DAFs moving across from Classic) as a stop-gap. Like said, last year the X93 is said to have made a 6 figure profit (which means they took £170k+ including running costs etc) so hopefully even with an increased summer PVR (they looking at using 8 vehicles this year I believe) plus the rumoured good weather will produce similar results.
How do we know they've 'gone for' them without trialing them? What was the point of trialing 7624 if they've already decided on using the London stuff?
