The Stockton examples are currently awaiting route branding before entering service, so they'll be a little bit interesting on the eye than being in plain swoops at least! Been a lot of toing and froing with the new livery in recent weeks, the Manchester half-baked E400MMCs with different interiors evident of that. 


7 examples sat outside in the yard this morning on my way home from work - 4 parked along the fence in what was previously the 'dead row' as they have been since Friday while 3 were sat down by the offices. None as yet have any sort of fleetnames or numbers applied.

I'm sure Tony will be on the ball! Not branded yet and I believe they may not be out on night-time running boards at first - awaiting radio fitting.

Thanks for info mate

Given the repaints of the gas buses have slowed right down I thought that perhaps they were gearing towards putting them in the new livery too. Would have been quite interesting!

Has the new livery been revealed?, i honestly can't remember if I've saw it or not.

That trip now showing as being 27244. 26276 meanwhile is out on 59/61


EDIT: 27244 has picked up that board - 26278 now out on one of the few 36/37/38 boards, working the 0853 38 from Middlesbrough. 26277 has also now debuted in service on the late start 36/37 board.

26279 meanwhile is now logo’d up but currently parked up along the ‘dead row’ fence with the majority of the other new unbranded examples and 19206.

24103 has now transfered over to Slatyford.

RBZ 5459. Is that a permanent move for good or just on loan. Robin

Permanent, and yes the batch has been through the Euro 6 Cummins re-engine program.

26279 on the 34 today

Interestingly, it’s not tracking on Bus Times however....

They have 27506, 27240, 27158, 22063 and 22064 as out on 34/34A. So, 26279 is either one of the ALXs or something’s amiss with Bus Times

27506 was parked up at the back of the Wheatsheaf at the beginning of the week, so could it possibly have its ticket machine?

27506 isn't tracking either Smile 
Busview is a good resource, always take with a pint of salt.
