Thank you for posting this list here. The Streetlites are unusual for Stagecoach. I reckon they will go to Wales which already has some shorter Streetlites at Merthyr Tydfil.

The StreetLites are supposedly for Sheffield routes 1/1A, alongside 26 new First examples.

The StreetLites are supposedly for Sheffield routes 1/1A, alongside 26 new First examples. This will give the route a consistent image, with both operators by then using Streetlites.

As someone from South Yorkshire, streetlites are the worst buses for the 1/1a. They'll be rammed full. EDIT: And Herdings will destroy them in about a week or two
