849 to 889 will be gone first.
40 bendies replace 40 bendies. Just like how 388S replace
838H
DDs will replace most of the trunk svc that have majority
bendies like 969,963,176 etc.
But if DD replace Habit, Volgren, Smileys. I wonder where they
will throw them? Unless they want put them as SP jz like how
HG/SL/BB kept DM3500 as spare until Citaro comes in to displace
them.
Possible the current batch of bendies will deregister early just
like how the Lance are gone 5 years ahead of actual deregistration
period.
Only time will tell
I think this time the DD is replacing the box bendy...Prob. they
clearing those problematic bendy out by not refurbing them. Then
when the 241 new fleet have settled, it will be a mixture of WAB
DD/Bendy and non-WAB Bendy.
