New Deliveries / New Livery & Branding Discussion

Not sure if I missed this somewhere else, but I've just noticed that 3302-3305 have appeared on the main site as Wright Streetdecks (crimson) on order.

Are these intended for one garage or distribution around the network (or too early to say?)

There is a logic that these would be for the new X10. But personally find it strange that it wouldn't be getting Platinum standard

Maybe when they are decked out they will be platinum standard

Would that number of buses even be enough for the X10?

Who has said 3301/5 are going on the X10

I think people are making a correlation between new buses and a new route, I can see the reasoning but it doesn't necessarily mean its right,

Doubt they'd be platinum or they'd be in a different fleet number range

I think they will branded and used on the 9, allowing the X10 to be MMC operated by non branded examples.

I personally think the streetdecks will be used to upgrade the much maligned 289 service

Nice idea, but... More chance of flying on Concorde :)

What about the 129 ?

Or what about the 141 ????

141 will be the X10 24/7/16

[2206]

140 maybe?

I know that it has been clearly stated on this site that only deckers from 4425 will be repainted crimson, but will an exception be made for 4177 and the other early Tridents which have received new engines?

I doubt it. Although saying that, 4076 went into the Dundee version.
