The Red Kite services, as Michael pointed out, have had their allocated OmniCitys since 2007 (ie 8 years this year). The same could apply to the Pronto if it was to receive investment. In my opinion, I don't think the ADL Enviro400s on the X18 will be quite as nice in 2022...
Hmm i had a re-think of my predicated order list:
Lime - 15 (2 spare, 1 for Chester, 1 for Stanley) - Streetlites
X66 - 5 - Streetlites
Pronto - 7 (1 spare) - E400
ToonLink - 14 (1 spare) - E400
Red Kite - 10 (1 spare) - Streelite/Versa
Crusader - 14 (1 spare) - E400
Is the cummin's engine on offer for all the makes of the enviro? (E200 etc)
Orders should hopefully start arriving within the next few weeks.
