Two new double deckers seen on delivery on the M5 at lunchtime today.   YT21DWA / DVZ.

Part of 15350 to 15370. Some have already entered service. They're for Gloucester and route 10.

                Thanks for the info , the "different" livery threw me for a moment !! It looks like the 10 is a frequent service so hopefully they will not be too difficult to get.

The 10 is every 10 minutes M-F, every 15 minutes Sat & every 20 minutes Sundays.

According to the blurb that Stagecoach put out: https://www.stagecoachgroup.com/media/news-releases/2020/2020-01-30.aspx Azure blue for its Local service, Amber yellow for Longer, and Ocean green for Specialist.
I would not call the 10 a "longer route" as it is only 14 miles in length with a journey time of 1 hour 30 minutes each way, it has probably got yellow buses as it had Gold Scania liveried buses previously.

There was mention at some point last year of Oxfordshire's S2 extending to covering it, given it's the same route to Witney

Edit:
There's a new registration for this route on the Stagecoach Oxfordshire license, so that likely has something to do with it
