(11 Feb 2021, 1:24 pm)ifm001 MAN 39706 is another that appears to have transferred from South Shields to Sunderland. This is 5th in a matter of weeks.

The following vehicles aren't tracking on bus times so must be off road:
28002
28009
28013
28019
28023
28031
28040
39718
39720
39728
39729
39730

The following vehicles have been off road today according to bus times:
19114
19211
27733
28032

Looks like there are issues with the MAN E200s and Gas Buses?

28031/40, 39718/28 have been SORN since last year, doubt we'll see them E200s re-enter service.
28002 was out in service the other day but doesn't appear to be tracking, Not sure about the others though.
39720 doesn't appear to have been very reliable since transferring over and seems to get replaced after a few hours. Sunderland desperately need something to replace at least some those MAN E200s don't know what they will do if things ever return to pre-COVID timetables.

Smoke was pouring out the rear of 39720 when I seen it the other day as it was going uphill. Not the only MAN E200 I've seen with that issue. I don't know how they even meet Euro 4 emissions standards.

I don't think I remeber seeing one that doesn't 'cough out' black smoke. They always have in my eyes.

Hi folks,

"Fleetreport.co.uk" has listed Stagecoach North Scotland Trident/ALX400 18113 as moving to Stagecoach North East. Has anyone got any factual info on this? It would seem a bit odd, unless it's for spares or donation somewhere.

It justust says driver error doesn't mean the driver is at fault, it could be that there wasn't a driver or other reasons, but I don't think that they would blame themselves for a mistake.

Any idea why the 3 MAN 200's have been put down for disposal, would of thought at least one would of took out the active dart at Sunderland......

39718 has been a christmas tree for a while now, 39728 was hauled to Stockton for appraisal and didn't make it due to lack of spares, 39724 is a christmas tree at Slatyford. All three suffered major failures prior to being stripped for spares. the MAN should all have been replaced but we are victims of the massive cuts in capital expenditure. Not saying we would have got MMC but cascaded stuff maybe a couple of years younger and Darts or E20Ds.
