Might be the wrong place to put this but does anyone know what type of vehicles are on the 300/301 between Stevenage and St Albans? And also how much is a day ticket for this service, I'm fancying doing it on my weeks holiday from work

One to be noted for the fleetlist - Neoplan YR02UOD is now R222GEN (and seemingly has been since March 2014) and is now in the White with Brown Stripes as Tri-Axle Setra T222GEN.

Just got the E2 into South Shields and went past Laygate and saw the Harker'scoaches depot. About 3 silver coaches and a rusted what looked to be a 16 seater. Anyone got any info on these. Coaches looked quite old and the only sign of the company was on the side of the minibus

24108 on 59/61

1581 has advertising inside for the MAX X12, why?!

Unless it's allocated to the X21/22, it goes nowhere near the X12. Would it not be far more sensible to put in adverts for the X14, X15 or X20? (Already has them for the X18).

Jesmond have 4661 and 4662 on the 43/44/45's today, wonder whats covering the 685's today?

From Steven Knight's fleet ramblings: (update from 31st August)


Stagecoach North East…
Regular correspondent Richard Smiles reports that former Stagecoach Manchester Trident 17643 has been sent to Gardiners of Spennymoor for part open top conversion. Stagecoach East Scotland Optare Solo 47053 from the Reserve Fleet there was noticed parked up at Stockton depot suggesting it is being transferred elsewhere within Stagecoach UK Bus or has been sold.

(31 Aug 2016, 10:51 pm)Jamie M wrote Which brings me to my next question of why didn't they order another streetdeck or send a B9 over from somewhere to be used?

They did actually buy a spare StreetDeck for the X21 but ending up increasing the PVR by 1, meaning there now isn't a spare, which results in regular appearances of old tat appearing on the service, sure enough a President was on today.

Hello.

The NNRG puts on A road run each year so people can travel on our buses wile not restricted to routs at the local events.

We have had some fantastic days out on these runs and we always like feed back from them.

With this in mind I would like to hear from people who have there ideas for such A run for perhaps next year. We get lots of peoples input but I have never asked peoples thoughts on A forum such as this.

So hears the brief.
The run must be held in the local area and on A Sunday. Departing from A known location and returning to this location. Also what bus you would use. The general time out for these runs is around 2 to 3 hours. That's including photo stops.  

Lets see what you can do.
