Will these replace MAN buses in fleet?
No, they are due to be cascaded. Not sure where though.

Cheers, thanks for the info =)
RE: Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire - northern156 - 13 Apr 2014
Some/all of the MANs are due to be withdrawn. I think they're that clapped out now that nowhere else will want them!
I'm going to have a bit of a mission trying to photograph all of these new E200s!
(I work in Carlisle and occasionally catch the bus - normally the 76 so hopefully it won't be too bad).
Wonder where the darts are going to go then. They're 9 years old now!
RE: Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire - cumbria0902150 - 14 Apr 2014
22149 is expected to be staying at Carlisle, the rest of the ALX300s are being sold.
RE: Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire - Dan - 16 Apr 2014
The arrival of Carlisle's new E200s has begun, with 37086 (YX14RXL) being shown in this shot.
The others to have arrived so far are:
- YX14RXM
- YX14RXN
- YX14RXO
- YX14RXP
- YX14RXR
- YX14RXS
- YX14RXT
This would lead to the assumption that they will be numbered 38087-93, given that they've arrived in alphabetical order.
In other news, 18325 has received a new wrap advertisement - this one is for Hayes Garden Centre.

When will they be out in service?

I was under the impression that these vehicles weren't scheduled to arrive for another month, but I'd imagine they'd get them out as soon as they're ready? I really don't know though.

A comment on the photograph reveals a more definite answer:
cms_Cumberland 1h
Hoping for the end of the month. Got to be branded etc yet. We have 2 launches planned too.

I've not. My auntie used to take me to garden centres when I was young, but I never really had much of an interest in them.
Few years ago I'd cut the grass for a fiver, but my interest stopped there when it came to gardening!

You are quite correct Dan - they are indeed in registration order.
Also notice 18325 has also received a front-end repaint into Lakes Green livery.
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - northern156 - 19 Apr 2014
27767 and 27766 both in action on the 685 today, 67 on the early runs and 66 on the later ones.
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - cumbria0902150 - 25 Apr 2014
The first of the enviro 200s should be out in service next week after the press launch on Monday. The new branding on them is quite smart. I think the rest will trickle out into service as soon as they arrive and are prep'd for service.

Thanks Richard.
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - northern156 - 29 Apr 2014
Stagecoach have now got the first batch of their brand new buses in actio ln - 37094, branded for the 68, was seen at West Tower Street this morning working a 67 with stagecoach generic livery 37084 closely following on a 68. Generic livery 37095 working a 61A and 60-branded 37088 working a service 60 to Sandsfield Park.
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - northern156 - 29 Apr 2014
37089, branded for the 76, working a service to St Anne's Hill just now. I was on it and talking to the driver I know, it's a really nice and comfortable ride. Will have to get a dayrider and have a good old bash soon!
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - northern156 - 29 Apr 2014
Sorry, this morning it was 37087, not 37084.
And blimey, will be sad to see them go!

Lets hope they make a good job on the ''Carlisle Youth Zone'' and ''Carlisle United Ones''. But I do agree, they look fantastic.

They are.
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - Tom - 30 Apr 2014
(30 Apr 2014, 5:25 am)Richard Smiles wrote Can I just clarify Tom, that as far as I am aware, based on the list that I have, there is NOT going to be a new Carlisle United vehicle.
The Carlisle Youth Zone livery, is to be applied to & carried by 37106. I am guessing this vehicle may well arrive at some point next week ?, given I have details up to 37103 which may well arrive with a number of other vehicles (37097 - 37102) this week.
There is also a strong possibility that, the base livery for this, will be applied at the Plaxton's Factory (Paint Shop), presumably then, with the appropriate Vinyls being applied on site at Carlisle Depot.
I'm just going off what Lee Wardle told me, I asked him if it was going to be retained and he said it was.
RE: Cumbria & North Lancashire Bus Operations - northern156 - 02 May 2014
They're settling in on their first week of revenue-earning service very well. The general impression from drivers is that they are very good.
Also look stunning, especially compared to the darts!
