Answering the query

27157-81 are only 3 years old (new in 2014, so first repaint shouldnt be until 2019. However, it does appear that 27160 has been treated to one already as the rear nearside Fleet number is slightly lower on the body side to the others.

A Stockton woman driver yesterday twice told minors they weren't allowed to sit on the sideseat behind her! Surely that only relates to the single forward facing seats at the front? One looked about 15 as well!

(21 Aug 2017, 6:19 pm)Dan The usual diversionary route for the X24 is A19, A1231, A195, Lingey Lane, back onto Felling Bypass at Wardley.

Ah right Cheers, Bit of a more complicated route for something that doesn't stop anywhere else apart from Gateshead.

Inverness had a MANviro fire this week so could be to aid shortages, on loan. But I was under the impression some were leaving for trainers too this week (destination unknown), so these two could be permanent seeing as they are due to go to the Highlands. Just waiting on fleetnumbers and more info.

Think Highlands have gained work with Andrews going bust in Shetlands too so could well be helping with that too.

Think it only done about 3 weeks service when it entered service in June, broke down on at least three occasions during that time. Engine woes no doubt...

Hopefully Stagecoach can get some more buses to replace the remaining ALX300S and hopefully get rid of the Kinetics aswell.

I'm not convinced that 22515 is fully fit like, haven't seen it since it re-entered service the weekend gone. Even then it was pi****g out diesel when it was idling. Sounded horrific too...

Not entirely SCNE related, but we've covered this one before. Ex-East Midlands Optare Solo 47265, which turned up at Stockton initially and ultimately donated to Teen Challenge Teesside last year, has been sold to Alpha Recovery for scrap. Still in Stagecoach livery, with fleetnumbers etc. Looks unused post-SC, inside and out is in really good condition too.
