i have passed one of the b7tl buses in newcastle and the engine sounded like it was going to blow up.

Weardale's YN06 XEC parked up in the Stanley Travel yard this evening when i was in.

Service 40A - Millburngate Bridge roadworks.
During the first part of the roadworks (approx 2 weeks) the closure of Walkergate will mean 40A will run to the Coach Park via Claypath omitting the normal stops on Freemans Place.

Currently on loan to the company - carries the Stanley Travel legals.
Nexus MPD OO05 STX is currently VOR with E2 STX (i assume) taking its place on service 23.
RE: Stanley Travel - LeeCalder - 26 Jun 2015
Can I just say, I will be glad when I don't have to get that MPD which is currently on the 23! Urban 90's and it rattles like mad

P4 STX is the coach operating the Blackpool & Pleasure Beach day trip today.

On loan from Weardale at the moment is GIB 976. I assume that it has released YN06 XEC back to Weardale.
RE: Stanley Travel - BUSFAN - 01 Jul 2015
YN06 XEC is now back with Weardale as seen it at Crook Yesterday on a different note Weardale bought YNO6 XEC a good while back from Stanley Travel.Can anyone tell me if they still have the Tiger that was sold to Garnetts then bought back.

Is the Tiger owned by Stanley Travel? If so, i assume you mean B10 STX which is still in the fleet and is currently VOR having mechanical work done to it.

Aye i heard that too. Don't even know what is so significant about that particular vehicle other than it is really old.

Stanley Travel must be ill. They have sent a bus to two consecutive NEBPT rallies. First Solo ON02 STX at the Howlands Rally and Olympian R6 STX today.
RE: Stanley Travel - S813 FVK - 05 Jul 2015
Mercedes Sprinter SL52 AKO (R2 STX) needs removing from the fleet list at some point as it has left the fleet (and has been gone for a few months).

I reckon they will give Shildon a miss but i would put my money on them attending the Seaburn rally. Would be nice if they finished the work on B10 STX and start taking that along to rallies as it certainly won't be seeing use on a private hire or scholars again.
RE: Stanley Travel - idiot - 05 Jul 2015
I heard today that they won't be attending the next one due to the Great North Bike Ride. However just checked the dates of both and there on different days.
Oh how I'm not looking forward to that bus journey first thing on the Sunday morning again this year!
