(26 Mar 2020, 9:54 pm)AIG20 According to Bus Times 36086, 39657, 39662 and 39668 are all off road, and 39709 is currently on loan from Sunderland.
Once the Sunday timetables come into effect it would make sense for more reliable and efficient ADL E300s to be temporarily used on Hartlepool's routes which will also help with social distancing on board the bus. I assume the risk of breakdowns and mechanical maintenance will also need to be kept at a minimum due to possible significant staffing shortages over the next few weeks.
I have also seen x2 Sunderland ADL E300s today with the seats that back onto the windows at the front of the bus taped off.
Also, South Shields MAN E200 39707 has returned to service according to Bus Times.
I think most of them have been taped off. Noticed a Stockton E300MMC yesterday.
