RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - toward6931 - 07 Dec 2022 Did SNE ever have transbus president 18028? Apparently at Cleveland transit, I can't remember if ever being there? RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - toward6931 - 11 Dec 2022 Copied from Facebook but Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancs seem to be shifting alot of the 09 plate E300s, there's a few apparently transferred to North east I don't recognise, it's a shame that Sunderland couldn't bag 18327, 18359, 18562 and 3 to alleviate the decker shortages aswell 18327 MX05 WHV Lillyhall to disposal 18359 MX55 KPL disposal to sold 18362 MX55 KPP disposal to sold 18363 MX55 KPR disposal to sold 18364 MX55 KPT reserve to Lillyhall MAN 18.240: 22596 PX08 CSY Morecambe to reserve 22597 PX08 CSZ Morecambe to reserve 22872 SP09 DPF reserve to disposal 22874 SP09 DPN Morecambe to reserve 22876 SP09 DPU reserve to disposal 22880 SP09 DPZ Morecambe to disposal 22884 SP09 DRZ Morecambe to reserve 24117 PX59 AZC to Stagecoach North East 24119 PX59 AZF to Stagecoach North East 24121 PX59 AZJ to Stagecoach North East 24123 PX59 AZN to Stagecoach North East RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Storx - 11 Dec 2022 (11 Dec 2022, 5:39 pm)toward6931 Copied from Facebook but I'm not 100% sure on this but I believe all ALX400's are Euro 3 and the Nexus contracts either ask for Euro 4/5/6 contracts depending on which one it is so they couldn't work for Sunderland.

RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Storx - 11 Dec 2022 (11 Dec 2022, 6:38 pm)toward6931 Does the contract that the 2 60 plate vehicles at stockton are on specify that aswell? Haven't got a clue with the Teesside contracts if I had to be honest. RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - tcts24 - 11 Dec 2022 (03 Dec 2022, 5:41 pm)toward6931 that's why bag any darts that are decent to scrap some of the worst E200s for parts, and as for 2010 E200s, the 2007-2010 batches seem to be notoriously hit and miss so getting more is another way of allowing some of the worse off vehicles to removed from service, plus In my opinion I know Newcastle could certainly do with losing maybe 5 E200s for E300s as they are regularly appearing on routes they shouldn't beAgain with the Dart's... Every time I go into work you can guarantee at least one of them will be sat in engineering and I think we only have 5 of them? Granted, parts are more readily available which seems to be the biggest issue with the MAN's which really are undoubtedly far better buses overall. RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - toward6931 - 11 Dec 2022 (11 Dec 2022, 8:01 pm)tcts24 Again with the Dart's...

RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - tcts24 - 17 Dec 2022 (16 Dec 2022, 12:40 am)col87 Any idea if 34605 is still about although am guessing it’s been scrapped as not seen it in depot for a while which is a shame as it was a good bus.I'm told by engineering that it's in Sunderland getting a new engine and MOT RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - col87 - 22 Dec 2022 (17 Dec 2022, 3:52 pm)tcts24 I'm told by engineering that it's in Sunderland getting a new engine and MOT So a chance it could return to service in Hartlepool then. That and keeping 34611 should help here. RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Lollist - 23 Dec 2022 Does anyone know anything about 22063 RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - toward6931 - 29 Dec 2022 hopefully with the new 400MMCs deliveries next year SNE can scale up some services and depots capacity. i am going to go through some ideas i have about individual depots as i think its hard hard to go through all SNE depots in a detailed way in one post i used to know walkergate and slatyford services well having worked there, obviously things have changed in a decade so apologies if im a bit out of date, but i think walkergate needs to regain some of the lost deckers there , i think 4 E200s are sufficient for walkergate on the 317, 3 vehicles in use and 1 spare, i believe the following E200s are allocated to walker and in my opinion is double the amount they should have 36467 36468 36960 36961 36962 36963 36964 as for single decks i believe they currently have the following, when i used to work there i think they had 5 or 6 and that was (if memory serves correctly) for if (could be wrong here) route 22 i think it was had diversions, especially after the deroofing incidents 22065 22341 22347 22412 22437 24109 27157 27158 27723 27724 27725 27736 27739 as there is an increased need for double decks in SNE i would be content to keep the number of full size single decks around the 8 mark at walkergate to mitigate shortages, therefore i would suggest that the E300s stay for the time being until either replaced by newer models but the ALXs ideally need to go for CAZ purposes. ideally if walkergate could snag around 30 newer double deck vehicles the could then lose the 4 E200s, the 5ALXs and then keeping 1of these newer double deck as a spare, cascade 20 of its eldest vehicles to elsewhere in the north east area, i will cover that in a later post RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Dans_bus_photos - 29 Dec 2022 (29 Dec 2022, 8:47 pm)toward6931 hopefully with the new 400MMCs deliveries next year SNE can scale up some services and depots capacity. i am going to go through some ideas i have about individual depots as i think its hard hard to go through all SNE depots in a detailed way in one post 27736/39 are just loans replacing 10633/7 which went to Sunderland but 10637 and 27739 have already returned back to their own depots. Also the PVR of the 317 is 5 for the E200s. Other than the E200s I do agree Walkergate should be fully double decker, hopefully the new E400MMCs that are due will replace single deckers across all the depots as Sunderland and Stockton could definitely do with a couple of extra deckers RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Mr Alx300 22062 NK54 BFF - 31 Dec 2022 (23 Dec 2022, 10:59 am)Lollist Does anyone know anything about 22063On Stocktons pits with 27508 and it’s not looking like it will come back at all ? RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Lollist - 31 Dec 2022 Yeah you have already told me on WhatsApp what's the point if replying lmao RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - col87 - 03 Jan 2023 (31 Dec 2022, 11:10 am)Mr Alx300 22062 NK54 BFF On Stocktons pits with 27508 and it’s not looking like it will come back at all ?Which one ? Well 34605 is back in service at Hartlepool is out on the 6/7 for the day but not showing up on bus times. I know 34611 has been out the last few days despite it saying different as well. I think it’s still in service at Hartlepool as well today. RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - glen - 09 Jan 2023 Has 22063 sill in service or withdraw now haven't seen it for some time?
