Do you think stagecoach north east well get anymore second hard buses other stagecoach fleet like other do ?

GNE have stated on the timetable page for X9/X10. That there is going to be major roadworks from mid septembef on Felling bypass between Whitemare Pool and He worth and they will be diverting X9/X10 out of the area for the duration of the roadworks 

Does anyone know if the X24/34 will be diverted otherwise they will suffer horrendously with delays

20511 is out in Sundetrland today, it's currently at the Vaux traffic lights, looks like its heading back to the depot

Normally when there's major disruption between Whiteleas and Heworth they run direct via the A1300, A194 up to Whitemare Pool, Avoiding a part of Whiteleas and all of Bolden.

X24 would more likely run via Washington using the A1231 up to the A1M, Then direct to Gateshead or straight to Newcastle if it's too much of a pain to run via Gateshead.
That's if they divert anyways.

The usual diversionary route for the X24 is A19, A1231, A195, Lingey Lane, back onto Felling Bypass at Wardley.

Anybody out there know the best place in Hartlepool to obtain Stagecoach timetables please.

Go to office in the town press the bell they let you get some

Failing that, the library or tourist information in Church Square should be your best bets

Hi when do E300 27157/181 getting repaint again

They were only delivered in 2015, so first repaint won't be until 2020.

Thank for info mate

Double decker Gas bus in the first X24 from Sunderland.

Answering the query

27157-81 are only 3 years old (new in 2014, so first repaint shouldnt be until 2019. However, it does appear that 27160 has been treated to one already as the rear nearside Fleet number is slightly lower on the body side to the others.

A Stockton woman driver yesterday twice told minors they weren't allowed to sit on the sideseat behind her! Surely that only relates to the single forward facing seats at the front? One looked about 15 as well!

Ah right Cheers, Bit of a more complicated route for something that doesn't stop anywhere else apart from Gateshead.

Does anyone know, what time gas dd bus is due at Newcastle or Sunderland?

Thanks

Just on loan or are they a permanent transfer?

Inverness had a MANviro fire this week so could be to aid shortages, on loan. But I was under the impression some were leaving for trainers too this week (destination unknown), so these two could be permanent seeing as they are due to go to the Highlands. Just waiting on fleetnumbers and more info.

Think Highlands have gained work with Andrews going bust in Shetlands too so could well be helping with that too.

22515 has re-entered service, allocated onto the 100 this morning, with 22581 on the 10/11.
