3 will be allocated to the X34, the other 3 not sure, they'll probables stay at Shields until the X34 goes every 20 minutes.... the other 3 are unconfirmed so might change.

The current 3 at Shields will move back to Newcastle.

Cheers mate thanks for info. Robin

fingers crossed for a Sunderland estates to Newcastle service

Wish some deckers would join Sunderland

Not the only one although i think we'll only ever see deckers in Sunderland from the E routes...............

South Shields MAN ALX300 22067 was slipping gears today causing immense kickdowns and thrash. A buzzer also briefly sounded a few times in the drivers cab. It operated the 16:31 E1 from Whitburn towards South Shields which was running 15 minutes late.

Past me around a hour ago on the E6

Cant help but ask, what is with the Hartlepool destinations? If i thought it was going to get updated now, would have at least expected it to be South Shields destinations.

I've never understood that particular destination layout for the service 4 showing Town and Clavering on the top row. It's the only one which shows town and the final destination on the top, and due to the route it takes, there's 20 minutes between the points, so it's not like they're particularly close to each other either

What do the ALX400's in Teesside normaly operate on Saturday's.

Have just seen first pictures of 19643 which is coming to South Shields? Regards Robin

The ilusive 19643 has shown up lol! Robin all 6 are going to South Shields

Kind regards

Thought I would have a little nosey round the back of Wheatsheaf this afternoon, just as got round the back an Engineer boarded 19643 which was parked inside the Garage as seen in the first link, but was then moved to sit with the rest of the vehicles round back, meanwhile an Unidentified MAN E200 went into what looked to be the Paintshop, but I could be wrong, second Garage in from the Left it went into.

I'd of thought we may have Seen at least one of them all done by now.

Kind regards

Forgot to ask, has anyone seen 37301 out in South Shields yet? Only noted 37302/3/4/5 so far

Thanks in advance

It would make sense for just the four to have entered service so far as only 35191-94 have transferred to Slatyford to date.

37301 has been in service as well.

13s probably the most common but could appear on just about anything - 12, 52, 58...

Thanks Cock Robin.

To be exact 37301 and 37302 has been in service for 4 days and the other 37303/4/5 have been in service for just under 2 weeks

You are correct about 35191/2/3/4 have transferred to Slatyford. 35190/5 still remain at Shields with 35190 being on the 17/18 boards today with 35195 unknown today.
the next round 37306/7/8/9 should be entering service in the next few days. This will replace the 2 Darts ad the first 3 MANviros, im going to guess that its 39704/10 and 39708 that go first as there in the worst condition.

Have any of the next batch arrived yet?

Thanks in advance

Chris

What will happen to Slatyford Darts 34609-14 - assuming that they are being replaced by 35190-95?
Withdrawal and disposal?
Transfer to another region?
Become reserve vehicles?

Probables will be sold or moved to another SC area.

22067 / 22734 ... 3/4/7/8.

Probably though im not sure because I've not went past the depot in a few days now

(09 Jul 2015, 5:25 pm)Michael wrote Probables will be sold or moved to another SC area.

Might not be beyond the realms of impossibility that they'll turn up at Plymouth!  Just my hunch, they're DDA compliant after all.

As the moves have started, I don't think I'm spoiling all the speculation about the transfers thanks to 37301-19's arrival now.............

Darts
35190-5 have transferred to Slatyford. 35155-8 are moving from Sunderland to Hartlepool, along with 35159-62 from Slatyford. What happens to Slatyford's 34609-14 and Hartlepool's 34401/550/61-9/605-8/15 is currently unknown (or how many Hartlepool will lose)

MAN E200s
South Shields retain 39701. 39702-14 will be split between Slatyford, Sunderland and Hartlepool. But I'll leave you to work out which ones go to which depot and who gets how many (I don't think it will take that long to solve  )

I heard Sunderland are getting 5 enviro's.

This was what i was told...

35190-5 (confirmed by you) 39702-4 going to Slatyford
39705-9 going to Sunderland
Rest of that above batch going to Hartlepool. 
39701 staying at Shields - as confirmed by you.
