If the frequency increase is justifiable, they'll repaint 6116. If not, they'll make service changes and resort back to previous frequency and still have two red spares.
On another note, more or less all drivers on the X66 are now using the Centrelink towards Metrocentre too. They were given the go-ahead last week, as the council has cut the grass which was causing a blind-spot on the single road at Pipewellgate. As this route is actually about a minute slower, you'll find drivers go via Askew Road West if they depart Gateshead late.
