I don't think Go-Ahead usually reveal such details on the public domain, as Arriva (?) and Stagecoach do - but I could be wrong...
The details of orders for Go North East (and I'd therefore assume other members of the Go-Ahead group too) have not yet been finalised, and won't be for another month or two yet. Although initial discussion on vehicle orders did begin at the end of last year for Go North East, there has been plenty of time for change and indeed there have been significant changes since.
Last year (if memory serves), a Go North East employee took a photograph of the notice board which revealed the details for Go North East's orders that year. If the photograph was released at this point last year, there was still enough time for changes to be made - but it shouldn't have ever hit the public domain anyway. Go North East employees and those with 'insider knowledge' making forum posts on the public domain giving hints as to what these details are is bad enough, but taking a photograph of it...
