Are these hybrids allowed in the Newcastle Clean Air Zone without being fined?

The Clean Air Zone has been postponed so they're fine if they aren't Euro 6.

All Walkergate depots buses have had the Euro 6 upgrade except the old MAN’s

Caught up with two repaints lost several times due to weather etc

11501 has had its bumper painted azure blue but the rest of the mosaic is untouched, also 24112 has a dark blue panel robbed from another bus both of which looks abit odd in my opinion

Latest Gas repaint is 28002, the first of the type to lose 'It's a gas' blue for Beachball back in 2018

I would of thought that one of the gas buses would go in to the jubilee colours

Latest E400 for Newcastle repainted is 19445, discovered on the 22, not tracking as with nearly all recent repaints. Captured this evening in Stella North, or Newburn Riverside as the council wants people to call it.

<script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

It's Newburn Haugh.

Stella North was the name of the power station. Two power stations were built on either side of the Tyne, they were operated as a pair so both were called Stella, with Stella South (built on Stella Haugh) being the largest of the two.

Ah, I was not aware of the two 'Haughs', makes perfect sense. I shall amend as I go.

Latest ADL E20D Enviro 200 repainted for South Shields is 37305, returned to service this afternoon, caught on the X20 from Fellgate shortly after 7pm passing the site of the old Westoe bridges

26293 getting repaint in to new colours now.

10638 to getting new colours.

Frankly Glen I don't believe a word you are saying until I see a photo evidence of said vehicles. Anyway just because they haven't been seen in service for a few days doesn't mean they are getting repainted. It might be simply they are waiting for parts to get repaired. Anyway it's not the first time you have stuff is painted and it wasn't.

Confirmation from the Wheatsheaf that 10638 is partially prepped and 26293 is being started today.

But to be fair, this thread is for repaints after the fact, or at least in the stages of prep.

26293 is getting new colours according bustimes

Looks like it is. This'll be the first 200MMC in the region to get the new livery won't it?

Wonder if it'll keep its 36/37/38 sub-branding.

Others at the paint shop now appear to be Sunderland-based 36969 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/189134926@...otostream/) and Slatyford's 10638 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/189134926@...otostream/)
