22080 on the back of an Alpha Recovery truck last night heading north on the A19.  An alpha truck was heading south, possibly to take 22070 from Stockton?

Were they in service condition or did they have all the seats and windows ripped out? If the latter, then they'll be going for scrap.

No, definitely not in serviceable condition.  It had no reg plates and had a couple of missing windows.  Engine cover was also flapping about.

22024 and what was believed to be 22064 heading up the A19 early Friday morning… if the image actually works then it’s visible that they had been doing stuff since it’s withdrawal as they have a wellwoman Advert on the back of 22024 which wasn’t in that advert when I saw it in early August before it was withdrawn

Oxford are also getting 159 new buses too


Could end up with quite alot of movements in the fleet, along quite alot of buses getting withdrawn too.


RE: Stagecoach UK Fleet Reserves / Disposals - Mr Alx300 22062 NK54 BFF - 09 Apr 2023

Anyone know whereabouts MAN ALX300s 22344 and 22443 are?

yes, i find it strange where depots like chichester,torquay etc are getting brand new buses to replace 2003/2004/2005 ALX400s when oxfordshire and manchester will be displacing loads of 07/08/09 E400s

Stockport will come under Andy Burnham's franchsing, so quite strange that they are ordering all these vehicles, The franchise for Stockport as far as I know has not been put out to tender yet.....wonder if this mean at Stagecoach will now retain Stockport because of the ZEBRA funding.

I couldn't find a more appropriate spot for this - 16336 (which I realise now was a SC Cumbria vehicle)

Hope it lasts longer than NA02NVL did..

Sunderland have shedded an awful lot of MAN E200s without replacement from what I can tell. Did they just have a bloated fleet post-Covid or have I missed some replacements coming in? Since late summer 2022 by my reckoning they have lost 39671-73/75, 39710-15 and 39725/26/29, while only gaining 19387, 27796, 27913 and 27914.

We have (or had) a 61-plate 3600 from Shields (36471?).

36478 came over but that was in exchange for 27740 I believe?

Was to allow 27740 to be a more suitable spare than the E200s for the X34.

There's a few ex Scottish E300s in Shields, not sure if they're Euro 6 though, pretty sure they have spare deckers too.
