RE: Arriva North East
'Sapphire' upgrades are now confirmed as followed:

6 (Durham - West Auckland or Cockfield) - in the Spring using 2 new ADL Enviro400s 6 new Wright Streetlites and 5 displaced Pulsars from the 7
22 (Durham - Peterlee - Sunderland) and 24 (Durham - Peterlee - Hartlepool) later in the year using refurbished Pulsars (likely to be the 10 ex-North West examples as Durham's 61-reg examples are all being displaced to other depots)

It's also more-or-less confirmed that the order of 5 Enviro400s for the 7 (Durham - Darlington) will be split 4 to Darlington and 1 to Durham with 4 Pulsars from Darlington going to Durham while Durham's present Pulsars will be used on both the 6 and 7.
