R2 STX is to be used on the R5. JYV's arrival was discussed in this thread a couple of weeks back too.
There are talks of Stanley Travel attending the Shildon rally in August.

Is K2 STX okay? It keeps stopping (no engine noise) on its way out of Dipton.

TX63 STX will be back in the fleet in the next 4 to 6 weeks following major works after it was hit by a wagon on the A1 earlier in the year.

A brand new slimline Solo was delivered to Gardiners to have the red skirt added, and will enter the fleet for the R5's.
It was delivered with the registration number R2 STX already on it.

Nice but also surprising to head. From what i heard it was a nasty accident sounded like it would not be repaired.

As noted on the Stanley Travel twitter page and later noted on here.

Anyway, in other news, P2 STX has been withdrawn from the fleet. Currently sitting next to the garage like it has been for weeks.

I have not heard any plans for them yet. I imagine E2 STX (E200) will be kept for NDA scholars work but OO05 STX doesnt really have any use as it will not operate the R5. Might pass to GCT i dont know.

Wasn't too keen on the much bolder red line along the top at first but when i actually had the chance to stop and look (was on a moving bus when i took that photo), it looks really nice.

Cheers, that looks pretty much the same as the one I saw earlier but I forgot to check how late it runs as I am thinking of getting a photo after I've got Quaylink photos in Newcastle.

I'm pretty sure the timetable was revised slightly last year, diverting via the car park at Gibside, between Rowlands Gill and Burnopfield.
