It began trading and was originally owned by the Tyne and Wear PTA (or ITA), following deregulation in 86. A few years after that, it was sold to the employees and management team. It remained that way until taken over by Stagecoach in 1994.

There is alot going on at Sunderland Depot this morning:
  • MAN ALX300 22664 (T664 OEF) has been removed from the far right workshop at the rear of the depot and was being attached to a green recovery truck at the front of the depot.
  • The workshop second to the right at the rear of the depot was also open, and MAN ALX300 22672 (V672 DDC) is currently located there. So I assume this may be going on its final journey to the bus breakers today as well.
  • MAN ALX300 22494 (T494 BNL) was idling at the rear of the depot, so I assume that will be taking 22664's and 22672's place in the far right workshop at the rear of the depot.

The forum has grown to such a large size that we have to split the threads monthly to ease the strain on the site. Large threads cause the site to run slowly, so this is the best way forward.

Discussion from the previous month can carry on as normal, regardless of which monthly thread it takes place in.
