Looks like it is. This'll be the first 200MMC in the region to get the new livery won't it?

Wonder if it'll keep its 36/37/38 sub-branding.

Others at the paint shop now appear to be Sunderland-based 36969 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/189134926@...otostream/) and Slatyford's 10638 (https://www.flickr.com/photos/189134926@...otostream/)

10643 (SN16 OYJ) is also at Wheatsheaf, would assume to be repainted next week.

Quite surprised they've started painting the E200/E400MMC's when there is still a large number of E200/E300/NG & E400's still to be painted. 

Looking at the fleet list on Bus Times the following are still in Beachball or other Non Standard Liveries:

39 - E400MMC's
15 - E400H's 
29 - E400's 
24 - ALX300's - Unsure as to how many of these will be repainted given there age.
16 - MAN/Transbus E300's
21 - E300 Gas
5 - Pointer Darts
38 - E200MMC's
29 - E200's
46 - MAN E200's - Highly doubt these will get repainted as I would expect these to be replaced in the near future due to poor reliability.

One of the E300 gas buses is getting the pride livery, not sure which one as Harry Barker (his post) didn’t state the fleetnumber on Stagecoach North East & North West Enthusiasts Group on Facebook.

yes im rather surprised about that aswell, then again though SNE dont really tend to make much sense when it comes to vehicle painting, like no jubilee vehicles, and some of the MMCs even those delivered in 2016 are still looking decent in beachball, if they looked tatty i would understand a repaint but they aren't, whereas some of the 2008 deckers are looking very forlorn with some panels virtually rusted through

They not just done when the buses are in for exams etc. Makes sense doing it then rather than pulling vehicles off the road and leaving services short, basically what's happened at Arriva Redcar lately.

It's 28007
https://www.flickr.com/photos/189134926@...datetaken/

I have to say it's a million times better than GNE's.

Also, I've wondered why the blue at the front doesn't extend up the skirting (is that the right term), but the bit at the back does.

12082 has been repainted,sadly i was just too slow to get a photo of it

Was reliveried some time ago. Last EH shopped was 12085.

Bustimes seems to think 10638 has also gone into a pride livery - can see no evidence on Flickr, anyone able to confirm/deny?

10638 is showing normal dishwasher tablet livery for me and photos have showed it as such, however 26293 is now showing pride.

However the peril of bus times is that any idiot can change the information. Especially those who like to post false reports.

Which is why I wait until I see actual photos. The Stagecoach Pride livery is vinyls so possibly they might be applied at the depot the vehicle is based at, but we have to wait and see. I'm sure they wouldn't have done a GNE and repainted 28007 again into Dishwasher Tablet livery for a second time in a space of a year.

Can confirm 10638 is going into pride livery. It is partially branded and is out on the 62 today.

Poor Glen. He was right after all.

Wonder why they have pushed it out half-done.

Probably no spare buses due to Silverstone shuttles

Finished on the passenger side but not the drivers side:

Not a fan of the blue headlight surrounds.

26293 is now in stagecoach pride living today it was service 39 I think?

I'm not a fan either however it does look slightly better when you see it in person, the rear lights have been done in Silver, should've kept these black as well. 

Seems certain depots across the country are doing there own takes when it comes to the corporate livery or in other cases the special liveries.

Please tell me the logo on the front is just badly photoshopped on, and it isn't wonky...

Was on the 39, 10, 12 and a run on the 101 at various times

26293 in service yesterday on board 6121 - mainly spending the day on 12s and 39s with a single trip on the 10 at 0840 (normally the 0505 101 on a Saturday is on the front of a 34 but seems yesterday they mixed it about a bit - the MMCs are only meant to be used on 13s 34s 35s and 59s on Saturdays due to time keeping issues on other routes)

Last beachball sub class member 37301 is in the prep bay at Wheatsheaf, so that is it for those 19.

I think 27241 is in new colours now

Sorry my mistake

10638’s thong/jockstrap seems to cover the fleet number and app/website info, then just stops shy of the roof.

https://flic.kr/p/2nD8DNM

It looks like it covers over the route number display, too.

yeah not impressed with that at all, looks really half arsed

At least it's out - I don't think 28007 has done a full day in service since it got done. Anyone know what's up with it?

The last of the 2015 batch of ADL E20D Enviro 200 at South Shields has been shopped. 37301 back in traffic
