What type of buses are they getting?

True, but it does mention the areas of services which will be affected...

Indeed and other areas which will benefit from refurbished vehicles.

Thankfully there’s no Streetlites in this order.

Refurbished Citaro's or deckers? Tongue

(25 Apr 2019, 6:19 pm)MrBoyt Yes, no Streetlites indeed...

Not sure if that's hinting at another Wright product or not Tongue , hopefully not those horrendous Wright StreetAir :p

Think all the citaros have been refurbed, with the exception of the ex Bluestar examples i stand to be corrected. No streetair ordered.


RE: Go North East: 2018/19 Financial Year Order Predictions - L469 YVK - 25 Apr 2019

Any StreetDecks or MetroDeckers in the order?

It would simply stop the conversation if we simply said "this years orders are 100 buses which are 50 Mercedes Citaro euro 6, 25 ADL400s and 25 Volvo B8s", which of course there's not 100 buses on order.

Have we got a date for when the new buses will start to arrive?

Na, i think it wouldn't, it would bring in to convo of where cascades will go.

Wonder if they'll be done after the B9's?, although, they seem to of stopped refurbishing them atm.

(25 Apr 2019, 6:57 pm)L469 YVK Any StreetDecks or MetroDeckers in the order?

If there's no streetlites, i'm gonna guess they'll have no streetdecks on order... i could be wrong, can't see them ordering Metrodeckers either. 


Have a feeling, we will see an influx of ADL buses...

I'm just trying to spark debate! It was true with Martijn Gilbert saying there was 33 double deckers and 11 single decks though!

Not sure if this is simply a thowaway line, or deliberate misinformation designed to confuse .....

Post 155 is pretty much spot on. Only they’ve added 1 more double decker to the order, 11 singles and 34 doubles from 2 suppliers


RE: Go North East: 2018/19 Financial Year Order Predictions - Malarkey - 25 Apr 2019

I think the 11 single decks will be Optare Versa XFE's then the deckers will be ADL E400MMC's.

Could the extra decker be for the Castles Express PVR increase?

Still think they will go for streetdecks but go for E200 for singles
