Presumably with some bodging around 1 likely to be the board which currently starts at 1155 in Middlesbrough and finishes with the 1700 14.



It works bus board 128, which that I know of, does the 1333 of Middlesbrough towards Coulby Newham

No idea.

10646 was the only bus not allocated so the rest of them are  back.

Newcastle MMC400s and the 200s borrowed from Sunderland are now back at their home depots.

No worries

19205 parked with hazards on, on the Parkway just before Greystones.

Any idea why it would be there?

Broke down on the way to college this afternoon, replaced with 19204 about 1630 so would have been about half hour late leaving college on route 3 (so I've been told). They've had a few issues in the first few weeks already!

This was at about 1815. So it was there a while. No sign of a tow either.

Thought GNE leaving that X9 at the end of the Redheugh for nearly an hour was bad enough.

I've witnessed GNE leaving stranded X9/X10 DDs overnight in lay-bys on the A19... to be recovered the next day.

When you're in the hands of recovery firms, you have to wait in a queue!


I don't think this would be a regular occurrence - having had a bus recovered myself at 2am in the morning, Alpha tend to provide a round the clock service.

Have there been anymore new enviro 200 MMCs have turned up yet at Stockton depot.
Just seen a photo of new enviro 200 MMCs of Stockton ones reg SN 69ZHH I don't know if been delivered yet.

Stagecoach are now specifying it as standard on all new builds - so yes, the buses coming for the 36/37/38 will have this fitted.

About time

Would hope some of newer buses would get it fitted too, although, that would be expensive.
28013 is making a right noise today on the 16, needs looking at.

Ah okay, thanks Dan.

So we won’t see any in Newcastle just yet.

Its been making a loud noise for a while now, it seems that a few of the 63 plate ones are quite loud now: 28001/2/4/15 are some of the other ones but 28013 is the loudest, sounds like its just the fans though

Does anyone know whats happening with Sunderland's 36971/2? They had their advert panels removed a couple of months ago and are looking quite tatty now, I though they must have been gaining SAFC branding but im assuming this is no longer the case?

I make it about 5 new enviro 200 MMCs at Stockton just SN 69 ZHE now at Stockton depot I think?
Stagecoach are the winners of the Tees Valley DRT tender so watch out for some smaller buses arriving at Stockton shortly!

Guessing these will be cascades from elsewhere within the Stagecoach Group.
