I only seen the back but it looks very shiney and no longer has a Stagecoach logo above the advert panel.

Hi so can i ask you somethink so the ex man from sunderland are comeing to replace old man from stockton is that rigth


RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - Acky81 - 25 Mar 2014

If I lived on Teesside I'd be foaming 15-16 year old buses as replacement not ideal. I won't miss them from Sunderland. Breakdowns and the most annoying thing you can't hardly see the destination blinds on evenings

They are only a temporary move - they will be replaced later in the year by the new vehicles and (only rumoured at present) newer cascades from other depots.

By the end of the year, what remains of the non-DDA MANs will still be at the current 3 depots (Stockton, Sunderland and Slatyford) but in smaller numbers than now.

They're in a far better condition than Stockton's own fleet, I was on 22487 this afternoon and it is far better. I also had a ride on 22463 and that too was in a far better condition! Just been generally better looked after as far as I can tell...

Makes it even more bizarre for them to have sent 22463/64 down to Teesside then back to Sunderland again. When it appeared to be to keep the 227xx series together it at least made a little sense, but are 22467/87 really that different or more suited to Teesside that 22463/64?? It cant be a case of which are in better condition as all four are still in active service, just at different depots.


RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - Michael - 26 Mar 2014

Stagecoach have uploaded information for their services over the Easter period, it's the same as last year.
