(26 Jun 2020, 4:45 pm)AIG20 wrote I wonder if 27727 and 27731, which are the only remaining with "E's" branding, will be painted into the old style livery or new livery? 27729 also needs a partial repaint as it has some minor bodywork damage next to one of the fleet numbers.I'd be very surprised if anything else sees good old Beachball now
I wonder what the plan is for the remaining Gas Buses that still need repainting to remove the "It's a Gas" branding?

Many thanks.I assume this has come from Bustimes which lists 18185 as part of the Hartlepool fleet. I assume someone has mistakenly pressed Hartlepool on the operator list which is the next option down from 'Hants & Surrey' which is who it belongs to - being based at Guildford. So no, I'm 99.9% certain it's not.

(05 Jul 2020, 8:43 am)AIG20 wrote ADL E300 27731 now appears to be in the paint shop (if its exact location on bus times is correct). If so then the "get there with "E's" branding will now be a thing of the past.
Are Stagecoach going to repaint all of 27726-40 again into the new livery in the next few weeks? If so then maybe there is something else planned for these vehicles? As 27739 had already been debranded and repainted some point in 2018.

(05 Jul 2020, 7:43 pm)AIG20 wrote There has always been a mixture of vehicles on the E's since 27723-25 were transferred elsewhere when they stopped using Park Lane Interchange.
The E's during the week is now a mixture of mainly MAN E200s and ADL E300s, with the possibility of an ADL E200 and a Gas Bus; and a mixture of ADL E300s and Gas Buses on a Sunday.
