Numbers of E400s on the 61/63 are definitely increasing, 5 consecutive buses heading out of city during this morning's rush hour were all Enviros.

Yes I'm well aware of that, point I was making is that it's looking like Bristol Rd will be the corridor to get the newer buses as opposed to other routes.

My hunch is that they want the corridor to be fairly new when the Platinums arrive for it

Would imagine the first ones will be for 900 / 957 - latterly X1 and X2 and the last of the batch for X61?
