What about the limited service xmas eve, boxing day and NYE?! Really gets me that they don't compensate for that.

Not particularly sure. Delivery started on Monday and today 28002/3/4 headed for Sunderland. The one pictured, 28005 has been sent to Wallkergate.

Ah right so it looks like it's true with the Re-fueling station not up and running, still getting built with some of them going to wallkergate.
I was looking forward to them being in service but it looks like Richard Smiles info was correct and we have to wait untill February =(

Looking that way at present... preparation eh?
ADL are getting quite busy, so assume the reason for their "early" arrival ahead of the fuel systems.

They could be, ADL are normally ahead on delivery's most of the time

They were keeping hold of them for a while I gather, but I assume due to space the they couldn't hold them anymore. So these will be 14 plate if stored till the time speculated. 28004 also has a different light cluster paint job it would seem. Perhaps trial and error to find best variation!

Gutted i hope they will still have their "new bus smell"... haha

RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - Adrian - 29 Nov 2013
That livery isn't pleasing on the eye at all.

(29 Nov 2013, 11:34 pm)aureolin That livery isn't pleasing on the eye at all.
Have to say I agree. Would have preferred to see them in 'eco green' livery... Let's hope they beat the ALX300s they're replacing, performance-wise.

A scruffy looking 22660 is at Sunderland today, rather than its usual home of Stockton.
