Did SNE ever have transbus president 18028? Apparently at Cleveland transit, I can't remember if ever being there?
Copied from Facebook but
Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancs seem to be shifting alot of the 09 plate E300s, there's a few apparently transferred to North east I don't recognise, it's a shame that Sunderland couldn't bag 18327, 18359, 18562 and 3 to alleviate the decker shortages aswell

18359 MX55 KPL disposal to sold

(11 Dec 2022, 6:07 pm)Storx I'm not 100% sure on this but I believe all ALX400's are Euro 3 and the Nexus contracts either ask for Euro 4/5/6 contracts depending on which one it is so they couldn't work for Sunderland.Does the contract that the 2 60 plate vehicles at stockton are on specify that aswell?

(03 Dec 2022, 5:41 pm)toward6931 that's why bag any darts that are decent to scrap some of the worst E200s for parts, and as for 2010 E200s, the 2007-2010 batches seem to be notoriously hit and miss so getting more is another way of allowing some of the worse off vehicles to removed from service, plus In my opinion I know Newcastle could certainly do with losing maybe 5 E200s for E300s as they are regularly appearing on routes they shouldn't beAgain with the Dart's... Every time I go into work you can guarantee at least one of them will be sat in engineering and I think we only have 5 of them? Granted, parts are more readily available which seems to be the biggest issue with the MAN's which really are undoubtedly far better buses overall.

hopefully with the new 400MMCs deliveries next year SNE can scale up some services and depots capacity. i am going to go through some ideas i have about individual depots as i think its hard hard to go through all SNE depots in a detailed way in one post
i used to know walkergate and slatyford services well having worked there, obviously things have changed in a decade so apologies if im a bit out of date, but i think walkergate needs to regain some of the lost deckers there , i think 4 E200s are sufficient for walkergate on the 317, 3 vehicles in use and 1 spare, i believe the following E200s are allocated to walker and in my opinion is double the amount they should have
36467
36468
36960
36961
36962
36963
36964
as for single decks i believe they currently have the following, when i used to work there i think they had 5 or 6 and that was (if memory serves correctly) for if (could be wrong here) route 22 i think it was had diversions, especially after the deroofing incidents

as there is an increased need for double decks in SNE i would be content to keep the number of full size single decks around the 8 mark at walkergate to mitigate shortages, therefore i would suggest that the E300s stay for the time being until either replaced by newer models but the ALXs ideally need to go for CAZ purposes.
ideally if walkergate could snag around 30 newer double deck vehicles the could then lose the 4 E200s, the 5ALXs and then keeping 1of these newer double deck as a spare, cascade 20 of its eldest vehicles to elsewhere in the north east area, i will cover that in a later post
