27737 replaced 27725 on the X34 at lunch time. All 3 X34 were operated by E300

Having buses on odd routes reminds me of the time when the 39/40 first started using double deckers. I wanted a 63 which I knew was a decker so ran for it only to then discover the bus was a 39
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
The 63 today was a MAN E200 but I didn't catch the fleet number Angry

Isn't there regulations on the funding for them to used at all times?

What is the point in buying them if they not being used on a Sunday?

I've been unable to get an answer from any of the guys I know at the Wheatsheaf, so I'm going to e-mail them tonight.

Stagecoach typically don't seem to be particularly reluctant to give out information when you e-mail them.

At leat three of the four Stockton Olympians were in service in Middlesbrough on Saturday. One on the 11, one on the 12, one on the 38. Didn't see 16839 but could well have been on something in the Stockton area.

Something unusual will be on the South Shields Shuttle today as 14671 has just past Heworth - providing it doesn't stop after 4pm.

So something unusual has been on it then, 'cause you can't get from Shields to Heworth in less than 5 minutes!
