(13 Jul 2013, 3:08 pm)dans_bus_photos You'd have thought it would have went up Chester road, and then turned left at the Hastings Hill
That's why I assumed the 20 and just timed the next departure without looking at the timetable to see if it was the first run or not. :p
RE: Stagecoach North East - mattdw92 - 14 Jul 2013
Timetable is finally up for the CS2 South Shields Shuttle, commencing 22nd for Summer Season.

I would expect it to have been replaced once it got into town due to the section between the town and the docks is secured by nexus. Last time i seen an enviro 200 taken off the 4 to replace a bus on the 5
RE: Stagecoach North East - Kuyoyo - 16 Jul 2013
A couple of interesting workings at present on Teesside, and they are:
16833 on the 37 (1633 from Stockton High Street North to North Tees Hospital) - it should be replaced at some point on its way to James Cook
16835 on the 36, replacing 24102
RE: Stagecoach North East - Dan - 16 Jul 2013
Didn't even know 37 was an odd allocation! I got a photo of it in M'bro. :-p

The Olympians are on effect not allowed on the 37 past Park End due to Marton Station bridge being too low.
RE: Stagecoach North East - mattdw92 - 16 Jul 2013
Rare one in Newcastle today, 12068 was on the 18 this afternoon.
RE: Stagecoach North East - Michael - 17 Jul 2013
Most Sunderland services are running as 2's because of congestion at St Marys and on Homeside/fawcett street area road works... nightmare

RE: Stagecoach North East - Dan - 19 Jul 2013
I'm told that Shields' E200 36473 is at Sunderland for maintenance. Should be going out (but it may have already been out by now) on road test shortly for anyone wanting to catch it in the Wheatsheaf area.

10000 on the X63 again today, a few normal E400s on the 39 & 40s too, so presumably a number of hybrids OTR.
Also a few notes from yesterday - 14670 was on route familiarisation in South Shields ahead of the launch of the 998 Shuttle next week. Trident 17026 was at the Wheatsheaf - reason unknown. MAN 22485 also at the Wheatsheaf undergoing repaint.

Hi Guys - Do you know which Open Top will be used on the new summer service CS2 between South Shields and Gypsies Green? - Also, will it get a brand?

Should be 14671 currently in CitySightseeing South Tyneside livery.
Will see another vehicle used on days when its of the road and when its already booked for other uses i.e Great North Run ect.
Cheers!

A few adjustments are needed, which involves removing/covering: all citysightseeing logos, the official tour stamps and English Heritage verification.
The "CitySightseeing" logos have been covered with "South Shields Shuttle" logos.
The official tour stamps have been covered also, but the English Heritage verification stickers remain.
May also be worth noting that the leather "CitySightseeing" seat moquette has been retained also.

I saw this heading down Stamfordham Road towards the Slatyford Depot around 16.45 today.

Final run finishes at Shields 1612.
Interesting to have it based at Newcastle still. Taking into consideration the very few passengers that used the service today (towards late afternoon, that is), I find it hard to believe that operating the service could even be justifiable if it's operated by Newcastle rather than Shields. Funded or not funded, I'm shocked.
RE: Stagecoach North East - Andreos1 - 22 Jul 2013
As far as I'm aware, it has always been operated by one of the Newcastle depots.
It used be seen on a daily basis, heading back along the Felling Bypass after a day at Shields
