Stagecoach North East Latest News
(13 Nov 2022, 11:06 am)Kuyoyo So far reported on various other forums and Facebook groups are:i might just be biased but i think the 14 buses for Northampton for increasing capacity should be cascades from other areas, can almost guarantee that SNE wouldn't receive new buses to do the same
- 14 for Northampton to cover their services 1/2 to decker operation, replacing single deckers - due in May/June
- 23 for Preston for the 125 (Preston to Bolton via Chorley), replacing 24 Gold-spec Scania N230UD/Alexander Dennis Enviro400 from 2015
- Unknown number for Folkestone for service 16 (Hythe to Canterbury via Folkestone)
- 20 for Sheffield Holbrook depot, likely to displaced Enviro400Hs from either the 52 (Woodhosue to Crookes or Hillsborough via the City Centre) or the 120 (Halfway Tram Stop to Ranmoor or Fulwood via Crystal Peaks, Manor Top, City Centre and Hallamshire Hospital), and allow the replacement of the remaining Euro4 MAN 18.240/Alexander Dennis E300s at the various depots in the division (should only be the ex-West Scotland 2418x examples remaining - their transfer was due to them being Euro6, required for the Rawmarsh Hill CAZ) - due during the Summer
That's 57 with confirmed homes, leaving 143 to split between 9 depots.
