hmm, I'm thinking an extra spare on the X34 or usage on the E1/E2/E6 or more than likely Driver Training due to how old the Bus is. Just merely guessing, but they are the obvious possibilities.

Certainly won't be for any of those reasons - given South Shields is a fully low floor depot it would be a backwards step. Same with driver training, any future Driver Trainers will be low floor vehicles. Only likely solution is possiable storage - although Stockton has a prefectly good storage shed that's now empty bar the vehicles owned by the 500 Group and I believe one remaining B10BLE (21152).
