Just found the below article on the delayed entry into service:
http://www.railmagazine.com/news/fleet/d...il-aventra
Will rest of the "Black Cats" gain WIFI, since 681, 689 and 690 have already got it?, hopefully rest of the "Black Cats" gains the stop announcements which were removed from the Venture as the services will consist of the 33, 39 and 238.... and maybe the 2/2A/61.
If you go by the above, the only services with WIFI and stop announcements would be 33 - and maybe the 2/2A/61.
With 14 buses needed for the 2/2A/61, i think 2 spares will be allocated to Deptford so they'll have 4 spares (5438/5439 + 2 from the new batch) for 6 services: 2/2A/20/20A/60/61 - total of 16 at Deptford from the 18 arriving.
The last 2 of the batch, i think will head to Riverside for the X66 (as its getting merged with the S1) and a spare.
The Streetlites aren't confirmed for the 2/2A/61, that's just speculation......

Hey, it's only 5 weeks until Go North Easts new financial year so thought i would make a thread, and we know the last buses from the 2016/2017 financial year is 18 Streetlites.
It was said by BusmanT in the 2016/2017 thread: "can't see many new single decks coming for a few years after these"., this was a post after it was confirmed 18 more Streetlites would arrive - this can be found here: http://northeastbuses.co.uk/forum/showth...59&page=57
