(20 Mar 2014, 2:18 pm)Richard Smiles Stagecoach On Teesside are getting New Vehicles Glen & I do know
when they are coming, however an Embargo has been placed on releasing this information, so I am unable to say anymore Sorry!, I am NOT being awkward, just respecting Stagecoach's request. All I will say is there are several months to wait yet & the vehicles will NOT be in the 24xxx series.
They will be in the 27XXX series

(21 Mar 2014, 10:02 am)Richard Smiles This supports my suspicions that 22453, 22463 & 22464 ? have returned to Sunderland in exchange for 227xx possibly 730, 733 & 734 which as I seem to recall was the original intention.So why was 22732 sent to Stockton from Sunderland if it's to be disposed of?? Might aswell just stayed in sunderland
Ironically however, having looked at the DVLA Website last night, the Tax or MOT for this batch 22727 - 22736 expires on the 1 May 2014, whilst 22453/463/464 are taxed till around February/March 2015.
The one exception being 22732 which has a SORN notice attached to it.
This vehicle is certainly NOT taxed & supposedly at Stockton Awaiting Disposal.

Sunderland have taken 17 gas buses so I doubt whether they have the space to store 17 vehicles for disposal so some will end up at other depots. I'm still unsure what's come off at Stockton though as I've not noticed any others missing! 22731 is on the 59s today, that one entered service on Tuesday though
RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - tyresmoke - 21 Mar 2014
22734 is also at Stockton on 36/38 today

(21 Mar 2014, 9:20 am)Richard Smiles Why not tell us all the exact Fleet Numbers & Delivery Dates as well Mr Nutt. I am sure my friends in the Stagecoach North East Marketing & Commercial Departments would really appreciate that.
You may have been asked to stay quiet but I haven't, jeez they are just buses
RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - ... - 21 Mar 2014
22464 is now back in service in Sunderland it's on the 13s today.
RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - mrnut85 - 21 Mar 2014
22471 is having a lot of work done at South Shields

I would think Stagecoach have more to worry about than a bus forum knowing that some new buses will be numbered in a particular series! An educated guess would come to that conclusion anyway!
RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - Roland Pratt - 21 Mar 2014
(21 Mar 2014, 2:18 pm)dans_bus_photos 22464 is now back in service in Sunderland it's on the 13s today.
Damn! Didn't even get a photo of it!

Thanks.

22463 is also back at Sunderland, just seen it on the 12s

22463/4 have both also had their 'on Teeside' stickers removed and replaced with 'in Sunderland' so looks like they will be stopping in Sunderland for abit longer yet.

The vehicle movements between depots are fluid and you'll find some of the vehicles which have recently transferred will be resurrected at their previous home depot.
It is for this reason why I'm not going to update the site's fleet lists with these movements just yet - any that have happened will be noted in next period's official fleet allocation update, when the correct movements/transfers are expected to be in place.
This makes my life a hell of a lot easier!

22731
22733
22734

There's also the fact you can see order's of vehicles from the company. No one knows the fleet numbers until they are near or go through the doors of the depot.
Agreeing with Roland Pratts post, I think they have better things on their mind than enthusiasts on a forum wanting the latest gen.
