The above posts confirms, they're going to shields but not sure when, i don't live in that area so would have no idea if they've arrived or not.

(22 Oct 2018, 1:54 pm)RBZ 5459 Them two are not due to transfer to Newcastle.


Movements up to now, bold being the ones have arrived at their intended depot:
36081/82/83/84/85/86/87/88/89/90 [Sunderland to Hartlepool]
36468/69/70/71/72/73/74/75/76/77 [South Shields to Slatyford]
39671/72/73/74/75, 39710/11/12/13/14 [Hartlepool to Sunderland]
39705/06/15/16/17/18/19/20/21/22 [Slatyford to South Shields]

I have conflicting info on a couple of them from separate sources, so some confirmation on errors from recent sightings appreciated.

39719 has also landed at South Shields - just 39715 and 36473 to swap between Slatyford and Shields.

You don't need to ask the same question individually to everyone. That's the idea of a Forum!

Main Reason is so the MANVIROs can stay off the 1 as they are unreliable for that service.

The gas buses i really do like now, used to hate but think they're a very good, comfy and quiet ride. A idea i would like is if the omnilinks (as much as i love them) to be replaced by the E400 gas buses. I really enjoyed riding the demonstrator last year, it was smooth, comfy and would fit in well with the gas buses. It was also pretty full too, maybe the idea of double deckers would attack more people (like me when i saw it)

The 'official' fleet card does suggest that the preferred allocation is the opposite way round. I do recall something said a while back about the MANs having poor timekeeping on the 1 being a bit slower off the mark.

Interesting - I would've thought the MANs pulled away quicker, especially the former South Shields ones.

Don't profess to have travelled on the MANs regularly, but I've always thought they felt quite quick as a passenger! Perhaps just the gearbox being at high revs and whining that gives that impression though.

In my opinion I've always found the 08 plate MANs that Hartlepool have to be ideally suited to the service 1 as I can't really recall one struggling along the Tees Road which is where I'm guessing that people are saying the issues are
