I found on Bazza's GNE Facebook Group more news regarding the new StreetLites and the subsequent vehicle transfers that will occur when they come.
Apparantly, Deptford's lot is for the Drifter, and Gateshead's is for the Saltwell Park. That will displace 16 Versas, which are transferring to the Washington Street Shuttle and "the new route starting in mid July from Saltmeadows, which is to be branded". The person whom I quote cannot reveal any more information about the new route, nor can any other GNE employee, until the end of May otherwise they'll be in trouble.
