(22 Jun 2019, 11:53 pm)JM03 685 broke down in Eldon Square today. Last one out, 07 plate E400


The E400 is 19145 as I had that on the 14:45

Probably would have went back to it's home depot (Slatyford) for the night and take the journey it took in agust 2016 again today or did it get towed back to Carlisle.

Did a Newcastle Bus replace it?

On paper, buses transferred from South Shields to Sunderland this morning (Sunday 23rd June) were the four X34 operating Dennis Enviro 400 (19641-44), the fifteen Economic operating Dennis Enviro 300s (27726-40) and four MAN Enviro 200s (39715-18, a couple have yet to make it).


A mix of Sunderland E200 have operated Economics and 30/X20 services today due to the mid-morning transfer of vehicles, some ex-South Shields E300 did make it out onto Economics later in the day (27733/34/35).

PVR of 30/X20 is 2, so two extra MANviro should help keep the Darts in the depot. Two extra MANs are probably needed to help MAN PVR generally anyway - the more you have, the more that are VOR!

The E400 is 19145 as I had that on the 14:45

Probably would have went back to it's home depot (Slatyford) for the night and take the journey it took in agust 2016 again today or did it get towed back to Carlisle.

Did a Newcastle Bus replace it?


Saw it still there a hour after scheduled departure with the mechanics. Driver still alongside 19145 so my guess is no, would've made sense to bring one in from Walkergate and swap them around


Also, any idea why the old E200s haven't been de-branded from cross pennines yet. Are they now backups?

They were E300s, I know one has been de branded and repainted into Standard stagecoach colours. I don’t know about the other.

27142 is Cross Pennine branded, will be repainted if 11158 turns up from Stockport. Two deckers aren't really needed to be fair.

Would say unlikely at the moment as Sunderland's drivers probably haven't been type trained on them yet. Same goes for gas buses on the E routes

They might struggle with fueling them at Shields with them not having the Gas refill stations. Think the E200s left at Shields will be fine Robin, certainly capacity wise for the town services.
