I suggest the citaros are being "sourced" from either Oxford city bus or Southern Vectis, I dont think enough time has passed for them to be new build.
Ex metrolink scanias I think will be joined by the ok scanias on the lime 8/78 split between chester & stanley with the B10s seeing off the spds.
The X21 has 7 registered routes from chester le street to gateshead, so yoy may see one passing wrekenton or heworth depending which routes are handling the traffic better.
Thanks the OK18 info, wasn't sure as ive never done the route, is passengers numbers good?
That's a good point, the B10's are good runner's still but i think its time to upgrade the service, the Lime do well on passenger numbers.
What ever happens will be decent just hope the scania's don't go Lime.. the highwayman ones look terrible
-----------------
With the OK Scanias having the 'luxurious' seating, I wouldn't be surprised to see them appear on some sort of express route, like when they were originally bought for the X20/X50.
I forgot about them having that seating... upgrade for the Wear Tee's XPRESS.. im hoping

When are these Citaro's due?
And where are these Streetlites!!!!
