Oxford completely withdrew the X90 service in late 2019, leaving the field clear for Stagecoach Oxford's Tube service. This last X90 shot shows a coach on Park Lane in October that year, approaching Marble Arch. The impressive Elite-i coaches were found new work. Several joined the Airline route, some were despatched north to Go Northern for their "Xpresslines" network and two were prepared for Carousel for a new High Wycombe - Maidenhead - Heathrow express service, which, due to the advent of Covid, was stillborn and never revived.
