(13 Mar 2016, 9:50 pm)GMitchelhill Quick question (as I cannot be bothered to search).
When did Stockton receive their Tridents?
Just that I'm going to go through my photos to see if I need any for photos, and rather find a point when they arrive rather then trawl through loads of photos.

I don't think I've got all of them, only managed 2 different ones in 2013 as they were so unliked and they opted to use the Volvo Olympians.
Anyway, it turns out I've only got photos of 17026 (some rather nice night shots of it) / 17027 / 17029 with Stockton (probably have a few of all 6 of them when they were in Hull.)
Aside from the school runs (going to have to camp outside the depot for them to return one morning), is there any other services that they find use on. I know there is an Asda bus service, I don't know if it still exsists, it used to go to South Bank ASDA, but it may go to a different one now.

Oh great, does anyone know of the times and route of the ASDA buses, I believe some routes go to South Bank and the others to Skelton?

The last I heard they all went to South Bank Asda despite the Skelton Asda opening.
Well that was handy, all 3 Tridents that I needed photos of are in the depot and photographable from outside.
And turned out lucky. One disappeared out on a random run whilst one went to warm up on the pits.
Stagecoach 'Club 22' branding has now started to emerge onto the streets of Newcastle today. 19387 and 19430 were done this morning and put out on 38s. A couple more UID examples were done later on and put out where they should belong this afternoon.

Was on the 22 tonight and I didn't even realise it was branded until I got off! Only really on the rear of the bus as far as I could see, so nothing special. Was 19432 I think I had so that's another one branded, would have got a photo on my phone but was too late before I realised.

(18 Mar 2016, 4:43 pm)Dan Must be why I actually had to look twice to see the branding... Tom was right - it's barely noticeable!
Pity - Stagecoach could have done something a bit more extravagant, given that this service competes with Go North East's Coaster.

(18 Mar 2016, 4:59 pm)Tom Yeah it's mainly on the back - the one I had had ducks on though rather than flamingos or whatever they are so must be a few variations of it.
They all seem to have Wi-Fi though which is good.

(18 Mar 2016, 5:03 pm)Dan Odd. What do the animals represent, do you know?
Stagecoach must have retrofitted Wi-Fi to further Enviro400s, as the three we've got down as branded so far don't (or didn't) have Wi-Fi:
