Stockton have reportedly 25 vehicles delicensed, numerous E300s (including the 3 active 275xxs) currently parked nose-in along the back fence. No E400s currently sat in the yard. 22013 has also turned up and is parked nose-in towards Flowers.

Any idea what Sunderland have delicensed?, according to bustimes, both 34611 and 35189 are out.. on the 23 and 11... would think those would be the first to be delicensed......because if anything, they would go for full gas and 63 reg allocations and maybe the odd E300....

I had a look on the DVLA website at a few Sunderland vehicles that haven't been out for a few days so looks like 24001-24003, 19644, 28005,9-11,14,16,29-32,34, 36965, 36974, 39673, 39675, 39713 are all now SORN.

No idea, there is still a few MAN E200s and the darts out in service. Strange that the 4 isn't being operated with gas buses either

Cant see any difference to Stockton and Hartlepool.

The only change in Newcastle is the suspension of the 100, presumably because you can use your Stagecoach pass on GNE services. For whatever reason, they do seem to have made far less drastic changes to services than either GNE or Arriva.

Do south shields run the x34 30 x20 again

(03 Apr 2020, 6:03 pm)Gonorth91 wrote Do south shields run the x34 30 x20 again

No Still Sunderland

Another 23 buses getting taken off the road for storage at Walkergate tomorrow night

Fleet now down to 38 buses

I hope Shields depot do get the x20/30 & x34 back from Sunderland they should have not gone in the first place. Robin

Why not Robin?

Do you know why because the 30 service started a long time ago from Shields depot so did the x20 also the x34 came a few years later?

30 started on deregulation  day 26 a October 1986

X20 started in 1989 not sure of date. 
X34 started much later 1998 I think it was.

Do you want me to find the day of the x20 & 30?

Did the 31 started the same time as the 30?, both were originally minibus operation, the 30 operated one way around cleadon and the 31 operated the other way round cleadon before heading back to Shields

No the 31 did not start for many years after the 30.

The 3 and 4 got diverted from full length King George Road to Sunderland Road and Nook.  When this change happened the 31 was introduced due to North end of King George Road losing all services.   The 31 lasted a couple of years then was withdrawn when they released the residents of King George Road top end did not use buses at all
