27510 finally back on the road by yesterday.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - August 2017 - Cock Robin - 12 Aug 2017

Last day of the 10A tomorrow. Unfortunately due to work I won't be able to get a photo.

Surprised this hasn't been noted yet. 22509 is now back out in service at Slatyford - bring the number of Kinetics in use to 6:

22508
22509
22510
22512
22513
22514

22515 is VOR with engine issues. And 15 months on, 22511 is still waiting to be prepared for service.

Might as well scrap it.

I have only seen 22509 and 22514 recently, the other kinetics I haven't seen in use. I am sure it's only 22509 and 22514 in service from what I have seen.

22510/2 were both out yesterday - along with 22509 on the 10/11.

22515 has moved (been dragged?) from the rear fence so at last may be receiving attention.  22511 meanwhile appears to have had parts removed.  22574 has been withdrawn (again) - been at the back of the depot for a while but no ticket machine installed now so presumably knackered again.

Fair to say Slatyford need a fleet overhaul in the not too distance future even the 54 plate MANs aren't ideal

If you are asking when Stockton's examples are getting withdrawn - the answer is, when they get something to replace them from somewhere. Given Stockton's PVR will be unchanged following Sunday's changes, there's no scope to see them removed from service then.

It has been rumoured amongst drivers that the Economics are moving operations to Sunderland depot and recieving new E400MMCS. Could this allow the E300s to transfer to Stockton to see of the remaining ALX300S.

Talking of the Economics, all of the E300s that I saw today had the 'Get there with E's' part of the branding removed.

No E400MMCs on order for the North East this year.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - August 2017 - Youngymmv - 14 Aug 2017

I'd eat my hat if the economic services were switched to Sunderland operations. A lot of time and money would need to be spent route learning wheatsheaf drivers etc and not a great deal to be gained from it. South Shields getting new mmcs is more plausible in future though.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - August 2017 - S830OFT - 15 Aug 2017

Would by any chance has anyone in the Teesdale area seen 22061?
If so which route?
Thanks


RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - August 2017 - Dans_bus_photos - 15 Aug 2017

36961/4/5/7/73 seem to have all received partial repaints to tidy them up, although above the windows and the back hasn't been touched meaning they still retain their SUNderland branding.

Teesside? Since when? Sure I've seen it not long ago. Most likely on 10/11 or 13.
