It has/will be joined by 19151 from Slatyford and 19675 from Walkergate (details thanks to my usual contact)

(07 Dec 2015, 1:04 pm)mrnut85 wrote [ -> ]Probably because of its dock cycle.

mrnuts is correct - these three have just or are in the process of their 21 day maintenance check cycle.

The Sunderland service 18 is packed this morning, only a few seats left... for once.

BIG NEWS!!!!! 34401 has had a ticket machine fitted and is going to be used as a spare PCV for South Shields due to 19644 going on holiday.

Further question to earlier

Does the Teeside PVR on a Saturday differ to that of midweek (Apart from school services obviously)

No. it's the same.

Is what mrnut85 saying 34401 is coming out soon in South Shields is it true.

Its going to be spare but I suppose your dream has come true

Not really, apart from the later starts (full PVR isn't achieve until about 11 on a Saturday compared to 9am on weekdays).

Also, it's Teesside.

No, he's lying

(10 Dec 2015, 9:27 am)Cock Robin wrote [ -> ]No, he's lying

I don't tell lies lol, it's basically going to sit in the depot and if a bus breaks down and it's not contract, then it will help regulate the service.

Tell mrnut85 to stop being a fool about 34401 coming out or staying in depot.

I think Cock Robin was joking when he said "No, hes lying".

Its going to be used as a spare until 19644 comes back from its holiday in Scotland.

MrNut works for Stagecoach South Shields.

34401 will be a spare so it might not get used at all so don't build your hopes up lol

When will we see it out on service.

When it's ready.

Cheers Davie for information. Goodnight From Robin

It looked lile a E400 (Hybrid) broke down near John Dobson Street.

What was 34401 doing on Thursday being driven by a fitter from the depot.
