With the approximately 20 Enviro400s due this summer for Speke to replace just over 21 ELC Myllennium single deckers, there won't be any decker cast-offs. Unless this order proves to be much larger, there won't be any deckers freed in the near future. Of course, even if the B7TLs were released from Speke, with their Euro III engines, they're surely getting too dated in terms of emissions to be used on the QBP 10 corridor.

The plan at Speke is for Enviro 400's for service 86/86A
The ALX400's will then be placed onto the 81/A to replace mylleniums, which would go to Green Lane to replace the X reg 22-- series darts.

No other buses will be leaving Speke currently, bar the two renowns when they become life-expired.
