(12 May 2019, 1:43 pm)ifm001 Cancelled E6 journeys will be the morning Shields to Marsden only. Can be replaced with 7/8 if still to exist.

Ah right cool, thanks =)

(12 May 2019, 1:22 pm)AIG20 I wonder if there is anything else planned for South Shields depot with several services moving to Sunderland Depot?

Also, is the X34 still being moved to Walkergate Depot? It would be nice to have a mixture of E400s on this route.

I'd heard on this forum earlier this year that the X34 was to move to Sunderland as well and it and the X24 would interwork. Any truth in that?

E1, E2 & E6 now confirmed as being operated by Sunderland from 23rd June 2019.

Steven Knight Media reported a while back that service X34 could possibly be moving to Walkergate Depot? If this does happen hopefully there will be more buses from Newcastle later in the evening, and Stagecoach would no-longer need to issue an apology on twitter for a single decker being used as there should be more chance of a spare decker being available here in the event of a mechanical failure or severe delay.

I wonder if the vehicle allocation will also change - some gas buses appearing on the E's with some of the ADL E300s appearing on other Sunderland routes? Hopefully this will mean that Sunderland depot could get more gas-powered buses in the future?


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - OrangeArrow49 - 14 May 2019

Any chance of the X34 being extended to South Shields Interchange when it opens? When is the new interchange opening?

It will never be extended to to the town centre. As that would result in the Marsden loop being removed or buses having to double back on themselves. 

Better off extending the X20 From Fellgate to Heworth and Gateshead/Newcastle. Even if still only hourly I believe it would get the custom.

Doubt it, don't see any need of it going to South Shields. Plenty of buses go from Horsley Hill, Harton and Marsden to Shields, and express buses are never going to stand a chance of competing with the Metro to Newcastle.

I wonder if the X20/30s could interwork with the Es when they move to Sunderland?

Hopefully in the next 2 or so years! Tongue

Does Sunderland have enough room for all the extra buses though? 


PVR for the E's is 15 
The current 30 interworks with the 10/11
X20 is a 1 PVR


would say around 17/18 more buses at Sunderland, currently they have 82 buses.

More than enough room.  The Wheatsheaf used to house upwards of 120 buses in the Busways days.

Probably not much call for them when the students all go home for the summer.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - V514DFT - 25 May 2019

Is it permanent or is it just a thing where they stop em running whilst the students are away

Ahh well never mind,tbh i didnt think it would last i suppose a factor of the night buses failures would be that people have became customed to either catching the last bus home or taking a taxi,some even get that bladdered in town that before they know it the Metro is on

Sad to see the night buses go at least it shows Stagecoach willing to try things.
