(30 Sep 2014, 7:41 pm)AIG20 Unless they have other plans...
When the Economic Bus Company was acquired by Tyne and Wear PTE on the 1st January 1975, a few Leyland Atlanteans were painted into "Economic" colours to mark the 60th anniversary of the business. And guess what is coming up... the 100th anniversary!
Information from the "Busways Travel Services" Wikipedia Page.
Hmm, no it isn't. The constituent operators of Economic Bus Services started in 1925 so a while yet before their centenary. Some Atlanteans (8?) were indeed painted in Economic colours but I thought that happened in 1986 at or close to deregulation when Busways re-introduced the Economic branding. Although of course one or more may have been done in 1985 in commemoration of the 60th anniversary, perhaps someone less senile may recall better than I can?

(30 Sep 2014, 8:31 pm)AIG20 Unless they are keeping certain information secret from the public. Obviously, they will have to release possible information regarding fleet upgrades for Stockton as I know lots of people have been complaining about the Stockton fleet being outdated and that the remaining S/T/V-plate MAN's have to be replaced by 1st January 2016.In what way do you mean 'keeping information secret from the public'

Those 2 being SN64OJF/G - these being 27157/8.
They are to be joined by a further 2 this evening, with 2 more everyday for the rest of the week. There's issues of storage being discussed as there's no room for 25 new buses without getting rid of 25 older ones

No sign of them at 2 oclock

They've been over the pits all day as there was no sign of them at half 9 this morning when I went past on the 13. I am informed the 2nd pair hadn't turned up by 7pm tonight

The lad is from Sunderland so I'm guessing this is a Sunderland E200...
