Well, the official Nexus timetable says Stanley Travel at the top, as seen here. So I'm not sure which timetable you're looking at!

I might be wrong, but it's probably a Nexus mistake when they come around to editing the timetables.

He's probably looking at a printed timetable. It does take time for the revised copies to circulate.

(22 Jan 2016, 6:17 pm)BUSFAN Have Stanley Travel owned ERB services long and what Vehicles did they get in the take over wonder if now they have a big yard its their time to expand like Weardale did a few years ago.

Hi they bought the bus business of ERB Services limited in roughly 2011. The Brown family still own the car repair business. I don't think any vehicles were purchased. The yard is not that big and is shared with Community Transport who have about 8 minibuses and the Brown's car repair business.

I don't know if its been mentioned before (or whether it something that has always been present), but when following R2 STX up Busty Bank earlier today I noticed it had a fleet number, 6025.

I also passed a decker in Burnopfield with the fleet number 6021.

Is this a new thing?

Having the fleet numbers stuck on the vehicles themselves is, but the fleet number system itself isn't.

What will be used


RE: Stanley Travel - S813 FVK - 24 Feb 2016

I'd have a guess at Enviro 200 MH07 EPY or the Solo that isn't on the Cathedral Bus in Durham.

Could use M2/M3 STX then - the Transits.

They look to be using something along those lines, providing that it was actually on the 762.

Most likely I would say.


RE: Stanley Travel - BUSFAN - 07 Mar 2016

Does the former GNE via Weardale Northern Counties/Volvo see much use or is it a spare bus used as and when needed.
