17026/8/9 are being collected later today.
17027 is not going - it's sat in the dead row.

Update (having just passed on my way to work) - 17026/8/9 are still parked in the yard so it looks like just 17025/32 are being used.

Any photos?

Nothing brand new has been delivered to Wheatsheaf unless they are to be based there - the last batch of buses to pass through there on delivery were the 54 reg MANs I believe.

Some note regarding the recent changes to the Teesside services since the end of the Macmillan contracts:

• The fifth bus on the 39 (which, for some reason, is running board 701 - a former morning school bus board) is now out for the majority of the afternoon - running off the 39 at 1700.
  
• Neither of the buses out on evening 52s during the week spend the day on 52s - the 20 past the hours from Stockton runs off a 59/61 (which previously ran onto the Middlesbrough Staff Shuttle and the 1948 39) while the 10 to the hour runs off a 58/35 (which does start with 52s on a morning)

These vehicles also feature high-back e-leather seating, as per other vehicles delivered to Manchester.

South Shield's Enviro 300s were delivered to Sunderland first in 2011.
Not the best pictures as I didn't have a good camera back then but it is 27728/9/33

Wonder if they'll brand them?

5 years ago this month the Enviro 400 Hybrid's entered service on the 39/40... that's flew over....

Are Stagecoach South Shields doing anything to sort out the delays on 10/11

They cant, Its a Nexus Contract so Nexus sort out the timetable's. And also because it's a tendered contract, It's ran with the smallest PVR possible with a very small layover to save money.

Okay thanks just because of the road works going on, on part of route.

But it's not just the 10/11. The 30 interworks with 10 and 11 and then there is the X20 also. So quite a chunk affected. It will have to be looked at eventually

The 30 and x20 used to interwork using 20123-26 ,35

How's passengers doing with the alternating 3 to gilley law and Farringdon
Ridiculous for stagecoach to have same number 3 on different routes

Now 4 MMC's lined up at Walkergate, all look as though they are branded and do have the high back seating as indicated earlier.

Thanks for the update.


Any idea on their fleet number and reg? Edit: never mind, 3/4 of them can be seen on this photo:

4th one can be seen here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/22413629@N06/28596265006/


Also on that 2nd photo, the person who took the photo said "New enviros for service 62 start arriving, 6 of them in total", it looks like could work for Stagecoach - although this is just a guess!

Cheers AIG20, i really like those seats.

Michael. Are shields depot getting any thing new while Newcastle are getting there new Double Deckers. Regards Robin

Unfortunately shields are getting no new buses this year, only Newcastle.

The E400's which will come from Newcastle are going else where and aren't stopping in the NE, as for the MAN's, not sure whats happening with them.

Extra Info, Not all are branded, 2 Branded ones were noted by me at Walkergate a few days ago, One has a blue rear , While the second has a beige like couler branding on the rear.
There was also 1 Unbranded example parked in the middle of the 2, Which I believe is one of a around 2 or 3 unbranded spares.

I passed again around 40 Mins later and 3 more had arrived, Didn't catch the branding on the rear though as I passed on the Metro

Currently outside Slatyford Depot and accompanying the 2 Newly delivered E400MMCs is kinetic 22515, Anyone know why it's here? Also worth noting is Euro 2 MAN 22673, Which is still intact even though it was last used 9 Months ago.

RE 22515 - apparently it's at Slatyford for use on the 100

I thought the buses 22515 where going to stockton what where there doing at slatyford on 100.

As Kuyoyo has said above, The only Kinetic planned to be away from Stockton at the minuet is 22515, If plans don't change the rest should make their way to Stockton without passing Slatyford. Though plans can change....

Slatyford are apparently checking 22515 over to see if its worth using the batch at all - they are apparently in a pretty poor condition...

Is 22515 to be trialed on the service
