7 Microwaves. I mean Streetlites

The Streetdecks expected here later in the year are expected to be 35151-35159. May be of interest.

Beat me to it John. You know you've made it when you get second hand Streetlites.

Hopefully more B7's for Potteries.

The UK Buses fleetlist for First Midlands shows that Streetlites 63345-63366 are "awaiting delivery" here. Anybody know if thats true?

The BBP First Bus Handbook 2015 shows 63345-57 as due for Worcester, and the rest for Leicester,  but since it's publication there has been a strong  rumour  - on midlandred.net  that Worcester is to get four of the StreetDecks expected by Leicester WITH the possibility of four of the streetlites going in exchange to Leicester.
In the last week, Leicester has received 5 pre-used streetlites from "up-north".

Worcester is apparently still expecting 9 new streetlites, some at least branded for route 44.

With a large number of cascades due by First, around the country (or within regions),  what "any of us end up with" could be anyone's guess !
I'm guessing there could be quite a few temporary allocations in the coming months.

Add-in the errors and discrepancies normally found in online fleet lists   ......  !!

Is there any date or just a month of the year that the new Streetdecks/Streetlites are due to be arriving
