21101 is a B10BLE!

W179's answer to that. The X63 will more than likely only be a B10BLE route until October at the latest.
As for B10BLE surviving after the end of the Olympic period, I seriously doubt it. They are non-DDA compatible (entrance aisle is sligthly too narrow for some wheelchairs, most of them don't have a seperate wheelchair ramp). More likely, I can see some of the older 03 or 53 reg MANs moving to Walkergate as additional single deckers.

I am going to visit South Shields either this weekend or next weekend. Now, what routes do the B10BLE's operate on and what will the DartSLF operate on at South Shields and at Sunderland.

Cheers
