any idea when they are due

Not sure where they're up too delivery wise with the 17 x 10.7m, there were approx 10 in Tividale Depot Monday, some still with their registration plates taped over some unable to ID. A large chunk were 9.6m examples, one branded for Atherton 126/132 routes & two were the ones that went to Redditch early as Tividale were struggling for space.

As a guess 32221- 7 tividale.  ,32228 upgo 32234 Redditch ,32235 -7 Kidderminster.  32228/9 was on 146 on Tuesday. & 32233 was on 50 in Brum

32228/9 were two on what I saw in the depot, and were being taken over to Redditch the same night to clear soom room.

We're collecting 5 Streetlites from Tividale on Sunday, in exchange for some of the Signature fleet. 20014/5/6/27 + something else are leaving (my guess is 30404).

Are tividale keeping the signature vehicles? Or are they moving elsewhere in Rotala?

Cascades from deliveries of new Streetlites & loss of Signature work, are all still very much up in the air, yet to be decided. The main priority at present is getting all the new Streetlites prepared & in to service, as they're taking up parking space in the main depot (after the recent fire in the yard opposite the main depot, they now have to be very careful what they park over there).

The next 5 Mellors are also currently a couple of weeks late being delivered.

Ticket machines list 32229 & 32233 as Redditch allocated vehicles, so you're probably right with that guess.

No need to wonder, they landed Thurs. Cutting it fine to get them ready for Mon though. Doubt there's any shortage of buses with all the new Streetlites.
