Omnicities would be well suited but they're all booked in for refurbishments so can't use them either, so I guess that leaves Temsas. For now they've got 7501/2 still there though, but 7489 arrived tonight from Ashington so that marks 6 B7s now at Redcar, with 5 already in use and as far as I know there's been no major issues with them, they seem to have settled in well. Time will tell how they do over the summer but they must have had engine overhauls done as they're doing well. Obviously they don't have the power to climb hills though, but then we knew that from the X9/X10...
Can't they use B10BLE's 4501/4513/4515/4522 as they are all fitted with Tachographs and would peform well on the route. They were fantastic on the 85/685, and they are equally as demanding.
