Both are still out at Walkergate for now. 22020 is in use, and should be a second one - 22018 IIRC.

26285/6 are also now in service - 285 entered service yesterday, 286 appears to have gone out today. 26284 also reportedly entered service yesterday as well but it wasn’t out in service today.

I'm unsure how reliable the Bus Times website is, however:


The following vehicles seem to have been VOR for over two weeks?

12068

22346

27506

27508

28010

28031


The following vehicles appear to have been VOR for a long time as there are no "last seen" dates, are these being repaired?

39711

36479


22508 & 22069 appear to have returned to service at Slatyford - unless the ticket machines have been swapped and have not been reconfigured?


Are ADL E300s 27506-10 staying at Stockton once all of the E200MMCs enter service, as two appear to be VOR as per above?

Take EVERYTHING you read on BusTimes with a pinch of salt!


In the last few days I've noted the following with just one (major) operator:

- One vehicle reporting as a different vehicle

- A batch of vehicles not tracking since date X when they're all out running

- Vehicles reporting as being on a duty, then not tracking at all until the terminating point

- Vehicles tracking when they aren't part of the fleet

- Vehicles operating without tracking at all, or even being listed


There's probably more!


In short, it's a very useful, and quite amazing, tool, but you need to apply a certain amount of common sense, local knowledge, and some cynicism, when using it

I've been very wary of believing bus times since it claimed half the North East fleet were in Warwickshire in August including 10650 which was the bus I got to Newcastle one night. The other day I was waiting for a bus in Shields Road and a completely different bus turned up than the one that was scheduled to come on the map. Also it said that some Newcastle buses were operating for Stagecoach Hartlepool a few weeks ago.

12068 is long-term VOR.

22346 I'm sure is on the back fences at Slatyford missing bits.

1 of the E200MMCs was visible at Stockton depot yesterday in the final stages of receiving its new route branding for the 36/37/38 - most vinyls were on including the route numbers and "up to every 7 minutes" on the lower sides and place names above windows plus some light blue lettering and what appeared to be a large light blue circle towards the rear
