I will be tomorrow when I'll be inevitably getting on a ALX300 in Billingham.

On Thursday 27th February, the Sunderland gas bus Scanias entered service. And on this rare occasion (as I don't normally upload my newest photos), I have decided to upload all the photos of the gas buses on their first day in service. The only one I didn't get a photo of is 28010 which either remained in the depot or was camera shy. Anyway I hope you enjoy the photos - http://www.flickr.com/photos/gjm-photogenic/

Going by the fleet list on here, does anyone know when 36963 - SN63 VUW is due to be repaired?

Only asking because it has Sunderland ® next to it

Was repaired a while ago. Clearly one I forgot to update! Wink

If I can access the admin section on the school computers, I will update it in a bit... Free all afternoon.

Think I'd forgotten to update the Stagecoach fleet list in general... Sorted out a few things (including a few for GNE) but will have to leave the others for tonight. Another class due in the ICT room so I won't have it to myself!

RE: Stagecoach North East - Latest - ... - 05 Mar 2014

I'm pretty sure (although cannot remember when but think it was at Stockton) hasn't another one of these went up in flames before? Much prefer them to GNE's Volvo B10's though.

Good to see you back, Richard!

I always think bus fires just look hideous. Guessing 53 won't be repaired...?

I wouldnt think they would bother repairing it given the age of it and the amount left in the fleet- they might just send one of the MANs that has recently been withdrawn from Sunderland- if Walkergate are after an extra spare.

Ex Stagecoach North East 21147 R247KRG also went up in smoke a couple of months ago in Winchester, while working for Velvet bus company.

The Stockton example was 21151. The ironic is, the 3 examples all written off due to damage while with Stagecoach (Fire Damaged 21151/3 and accident damaged 21154) have all been based at Stockton depot, as was 21147.
