Maybe it’s off the road because it’s being repainted

Doubt it is if 27725 and 37307 are in for paint..?
Have you seen Cleveland transit page about new buses for stagecoach Stockton
Just saw 22018 in Heworth with the destination display set to "Merry Christmas"

I knew that. It's still in full livery though so I just thought I'd mention that it was out and about

Anyone know if Slatyford’s bid for electric buses for the 30/31/36 was approved?
The electric buses are stagecoach Stockton I don't know what slatyford are getting?

Slatyford bid for some as well
Is electric I think? For slatyford?
Does anyone know what Walkergate will be doing with the excess buses after losing the 317? Would love to see Slatyford get some as they’re struggling for buses

As it’s a Newcastle based operation, it’s wooden dollars. Makes no difference , as overall Newcastle had the same number of buses.
So want electric buses are stagecoach Sunderland depot getting then are stagecoach Stockton depot getting some electric buses like Sunderland depot?

How?

Surely the PVR in Newcastle has reduced by 5, so they will be removing 5 (if not 6, including a spare) buses from the fleet allocation in Newcastle?

Presumably something at Slatyford has therefore been replaced?

Sunderland are getting Yutong's so I would imagine Stockton would get the same.
Thanks for info mate

Yeah but Slatyford has an ageing fleet compared to Walkergate, loads of buses off the road with issues so that’ll be why they’ve been given a few instead of just 1.
Looks like 37317 is back at Shields as it is tracking on the 10s.
Has the 3 darts replaced anything at Shields yet?
Just want say something when are stagecoach Sunderland electric buses coming for stagecoach Sunderland and full size buses and well stagecoach Stockton electric buses full size to?
