Dan. I agree what you have said about the ALX300’s some of which went to nasty place called a scrape yard, they should have kept them longer. I loved them too. Yours Robin

In the short term, yes.

Just in a reserve capacity at Sunderland (34605, 34611, 35189) and South Shields (35189). So anywhere really on their local networks when required.
34605/11 are on 23 today, 35188 on the 18.
28031 has been involved in a bad RTA this morning on Washington Road in Sunderland.

When they get around to it... its not a 5 minute job, only Newcastle have had the new livery done so far, out of over 400 buses?
Think the Stockton MMCS Will be a while yet for new livery. It’s as and when vehicle is due it’s repaint. Different for Newcastle’s new all white e400s as there 3 quarters done allready
Believe the next due out (and first single deck) is South Shields 37315. Would guess a few of that batch be done over the coming weeks as there due repaint as are Sunderlands 36xxx
Kind regards
Chris
I really like new livery can't wait to see on the buses on teesside it better than old livery. Can't wait see on one of new enviro 200 MMC at Stockton.

The spec was apparently changed after the first few had been done.

It does look large I agree, but I feel like we will get used to it. My concern is they cant put ads on the buses without covering part of the logo on the sides, yet they've kept the ad boards on the side, will be intresting to see what happens with that aspect, wouldn't look right if part of the repaint is covered up in my opinion.

Ahh ok, thanks for the info!
Should put the stagecoach logo up high on rear of double deckers so won’t be covered by the advertising boards.
