Any idea if these changes will still go ahead?, if so, when will they take place?

As per my post on the Coatham Coaches thread, it looks like they've won a load of work at Prior Pursglove.

Changes and movements ahead with the Stockton E400's perhaps?

Yeah we have won an extra four routes from September, including the three currently Stagecoach operated routes 1/3/6. There was a suggestion that Sunderland would operate the Durham school run eventually but it hasn't happened. With no other need for double decks at Stockton I wonder if this may now transfer.

Hopefully 3 go to Sunderland for the X24 to replace the Omnilinks.

I think Stockton double deckers should stay at Stockton to replace the remaining mans sIngle deckers at Stockton.

It would be nice to see Stockton keep most of the deckers for work on the 36/37/38 which would allow more MAN's to be replaced. However I doubt this will happen.

I doubt it too when they've not long bought brand new E200MMCs with all the bells and whistles on 'em, for the 36/37/38!

Doesn't stop the older Enviro 300 models making an appearance on more than a few boards, before covid I'd say 75% of my journeys when 200mmc with 25% 300s.

Any news on repaint of New living yet on some buses.

Any news about when 19439 will it be saved or scrapped after the bus caught Fire!

Robin, this has nothing to do with upcoming service changes. Please post in the relevant thread in future, thanks.

Don't think so and wrong thread... this is for upcoming changes.

Who took the photo of 11501 in the colours because they used the wrong bus for the photo in fact it is 11284 taken June 17th 2020!

Any news about when 19439 will it be saved or scrapped after the bus caught Fire!

You are joking arent you?, wrong thread

Will the 30/X20 be transferring to South Shields later this year? Also is there any planned orders for the North East next year to replace the remaining ALX300s, aswell as some of the MAN200s which are now 12 years in service?

I can't see many companies buying many new buses for at least the next 18 months - it will take a long while for passengers numbers to increase to the point where they are making sufficient profit to invest  Indeed, there might be service reductions once things settle down, allowing older buses to be withdrawn.

Any chance the 30/X20 will still move back to South Shields as originally planned? I have observed on several occasions passengers quite dissatisfied when drivers changeover at Cleadon Village.

Also with service 30/X20 regularly operating late, would it not be a wise idea to somehow interwork these services with the 12 which currently gets a 12 minute layover at the Interchange. One for the suggestions thread is to have the X20/30 do each route as a circular (South Shields - Boldon - Fellgate - South Shields) with one bus per hour doing clockwise, the other anti-clockwise. This wouldn't increase the PVR, and would offer 2 buses per hour between South Shields and Boldon, and interworking with service 12 will offer the benefit of reducing delays...

Maybe the X20 could be withdrawn and replaced with a new service 31 doing the above suggested route - the 30 going clockwise and the 31 anticlockwise, or visa versa.

I noticed service 12 yesterday exiting the interchange to the right, up Fowler Street then back into the interchange onto the stand after the 12 minute layover.

I just posted my suggestion for the service, similar to your suggested 31 service.

Is there a particular reason why the X24A now runs on a Saturday?

Service never actually started due to Covid19 and now cancelled!

Is there any upcoming SNE changes in the T&W area, any gossip on the grapevine? Bored of bus repaint talk and loans to other depots. ?

Haven’t heard a thing!

September will likely see some changes to take account of the school contracts won

Wonder if the Sunderland changes will go in to effect then too, as i can't see them putting some services back to every 10 minutes.
