(10 Oct 2019, 11:25 am)V514DFT When did 12067 get painted into corp livery

Returned to service early last week.

(10 Oct 2019, 4:56 pm)Rob57 RBZ 5459. 22061 is it a permanent move from Teesside. Robin

At Slatyford yes.

(10 Oct 2019, 8:29 pm)V514DFT Has 22022 and 22024 gone the journey,havent seen it in a while

Both are still out at Walkergate for now. 22020 is in use, and should be a second one - 22018 IIRC.

up to at least 26283 are in service now - 26283 was on the 39 yesterday

(11 Oct 2019, 12:07 pm)glen1234 Has there been any more of the Stockton new enviro 200 MMCs anter service yet I know there is no 26276/82 have anter service now

I'm unsure how reliable the Bus Times website is, however:

The following vehicles seem to have been VOR for over two weeks?

12068

22346

27506

27508

28010

28031

The following vehicles appear to have been VOR for a long time as there are no "last seen" dates, are these being repaired?

39711

36479

22508 & 22069 appear to have returned to service at Slatyford - unless the ticket machines have been swapped and have not been reconfigured?

Are ADL E300s 27506-10 staying at Stockton once all of the E200MMCs enter service, as two appear to be VOR as per above?

Take EVERYTHING you read on BusTimes with a pinch of salt!

In the last few days I've noted the following with just one (major) operator:

- One vehicle reporting as a different vehicle

- A batch of vehicles not tracking since date X when they're all out running

- Vehicles reporting as being on a duty, then not tracking at all until the terminating point

- Vehicles tracking when they aren't part of the fleet

- Vehicles operating without tracking at all, or even being listed

There's probably more!

In short, it's a very useful, and quite amazing, tool, but you need to apply a certain amount of common sense, local knowledge, and some cynicism, when using it

I've been very wary of believing bus times since it claimed half the North East fleet were in Warwickshire in August including 10650 which was the bus I got to Newcastle one night. The other day I was waiting for a bus in Shields Road and a completely different bus turned up than the one that was scheduled to come on the map. Also it said that some Newcastle buses were operating for Stagecoach Hartlepool a few weeks ago.

12068 is long-term VOR.

22346 I'm sure is on the back fences at Slatyford missing bits.

1 of the E200MMCs was visible at Stockton depot yesterday in the final stages of receiving its new route branding for the 36/37/38 - most vinyls were on including the route numbers and "up to every 7 minutes" on the lower sides and place names above windows plus some light blue lettering and what appeared to be a large light blue circle towards the rear
