27739 is a loan and also a shields bus not Sunderland’s.

Kinds regards

Sunderland's allocation seems to be all over the place today. Looking at Bus Times they also have 19438 and 39707 on loan.

That makes sense now. It did appear that the E200s and E300s seem to be spread across all routes. With the gas buses cropping up on the 10s/23s etc. Wonder if there is a contingency plan if it doesn't get fixed today.

27688 Stockton
27698 South Shields
27699 Wheatsheaf

Just wondering if there are any updates for these vehicles. Are they still at the same locations, and are they being prepared for service here ? I notice that they are all in bustimes but don't seem to have turned a wheel in anger here yet.

Any gen much appreciated.

I'm currently on 27728 heading for Sunderland on the E1. We just passed 27688 heading the other way (towards South Shields) at Horsley Hill running on trade plates.

59227 (BN64 FKV) has now also turned up at Walkergate, this one is in plain white. I saw 59226 and 59227 standing side-by-side there this morning, both visible from the front gates.
