Are you sure? From what I've seen, the 7 is allocated ADL Enviro300 single deckers, whilst the 7A tends to get a mixed back of ALX400 Tridents weekdays and Solos/Versas on Saturday.7A interworks with the 7...

Why would "newer" Darts come to East Scotland when East Scotland doesn't even have any Darts at the present moment? I heard we were also getting extra Scania E400s but they may have been mistaken for the Scania Omnicity's.Aberhill is getting 24 new/newer buses. Is anything else due? there has been talk other stuff like newer darts?
Different tenders issued at different times. Xplore Dundee will also need to use newer vehicles on their Madras and Greyfriars contracts as the current 54-reg vehicles will surpass the 15 year age limit.Why the difference between east, west and central Fife?
The Versas were brought in to replace the Darts, so why would Darts come back to replace the Versas? ... That makes no sense!To kill of the nasty Versa. Nearly all of them are in an awful state. Also What service changes? next lots not till August?
30 odd Volvo B5LH/Wright Hybrid 'deckers at Plumstead in South East London are reported as up for replacement very soon and possible cascade within Stagecoach, they are Highbridge and have dual doors?Why would "newer" Darts come to East Scotland when East Scotland doesn't even have any Darts at the present moment?

Dundee is set to have a LEZ in place by 2020 so Arbroath will also need some new/cascaded vehicles by then.

Also bear in mind there are service changes earmarked in the not too distant future.
All I can say (and all I've been told) is that work is to be redistributed between depots. Fares usually rise in April in line with the new financial year.The Versas are struggling, a lot of them now 12 years old. Seems crazy to bring in Darts (E200s?) when E200s were replaced by Versas?
More service changes? Is Mrch not normally when fares go up as well?
Could be handy for engineering purposes, however, they're on completely different bodies to the ones currently at Arbroath on 20/21 and 73 services.30 odd Volvo B5LH/Wright Hybrid 'deckers at Plumstead in South East London are reported as up for replacement very soon and possible cascade within Stagecoach, they are Highbridge and have dual doors?
