Couple of the new MMCs have already been used on the 917

The usual fleet.

Most people will just walk to and from Lime St, and those most likely to be unable to walk such a distance are likely to have a concessionary pass, and therefore could use any bus from James St to Lime St anyway.

Numbers using the service are likely to be minuscule.

You will be amazed the amount of people who ask if there will be a rail replacement bus service to Lime St from James Street when the next stage of the track renewal takes place , i think the passengers are so happy about the present arrangements , lets see what they think of the 10A joint operation for them.

Out of area now of course, but had a day trip to Cambridge today, all 4 Orange ones which were here, noted and photted on the Newmarket Road P&R which they are of course branded for....

Two relevant factors that will come into play will be a) the weather conditions and b) how long the bus journey will take as opposed to the uphill walk. According to Google, it's 0.7 miles and 14 minutes on foot.

I also think it will depend on whether the high-viz chaperones are hanging around to promote the 10A link.
