35585/6, 35592/3/4, 35617/8/9 & 35620/1/2/3/4 are the buses that were diverted to Diamond Buses Northwest (Manchester) Are these eventually to move back back to First operation or will the next batch of new 20 plates due into Leeds replace this lot of lost buses? 35592 Im gonna go with no seen as they are in the Diamond livery??? As 35585/6, 35592/3/4, 35617/8/9 35620/1/2/3/4 will have been entered onto First's fleet management system, now those buses have gone to Diamond North West instead, those fleet numbers will never get used by First. If you look at the new Scania N280UD CNG buses for First West of England, there are gaps in the fleet numbering which correspond with numbers allocated to Routemasters that were in the First London fleet when the First national numbering system was created: No RML no Reg 39405 RML2405 JJD405D 39428 RML2428 JJD428D 39442 RML2442 JJD442D 39467 RML2467 JJD467D 39473 RML2473 JJD473D 39480 RML2480 JJD480D 39486 RML2486 JJD486D 39490 RML2490 JJD490D i.e. once First has used that number it cannot be used for a different vehicle. So if anything arrives to replace those 13 missing Streetdecks, they will have different fleet numbers, if more Streetdecks then they will be 35638 onwards.

Shouldn't these engines be referred to as Euro VI or Euro 6.

It will interesting to see what will happen when all the numbers between 30000-39999 have been used up, will we go to 6 figure numbers?

So if anything arrives to replace those 13 missing Streetdecks, they will have different fleet numbers, if more Streetdecks then they will be 35638 onwards. I hark back to the days of the 3 and 4 figure fleet number system for each fleet. Thankfully Arriva have stuck with it.

The first of the diverted Leeds Streetdecks has been removed from the fleet at Bolton by Diamond. Wonder if it will head over to Leeds?

The rest of the Arriva Wakefield Streetdeck order has apparently been cancelled.
Is that the same with First bus.
And what happened with the 13 Streetdecks which were coming in the spring??

Don't know where you've got that from as one of the Arriva Drivers has posted on the Fleet Changes thread for Arriva that the rest are due in the next few weeks and that was only posted yesterday

Nevertheless, Thanks for the correction.

I think Diamond have standardised the acquired First Bus streetdecks to match their newer order of their own Rotala based ones. That are coming in. They swapped the white Hanover blinds for orange ones. Been seeing them on Diamond routes in Manchester. 8 and 37 etc.
I reckon if Leeds needs the last 13. This may be on a new order following on from 35638 upwards etc.
