There’s already a thread on NEB in the Stagecoach section called Stagecoach NE transfers, which has similar posts of above chat, if members think before posting posts to see if the revelant post is correct for the thread

Surprised by that unless 22408 is needing more work done hasn’t been on the road since 25th February. 

Anything been sent up to replace 22444?

Seems already that a polite request has been ignored. It makes it hard to follow imo. As people seem to post everything everywhere - especially I'm regards to the Coast Road.

I don't actually know, was just asking. Haven't seen about any buses heading South. Just know they usually do the shuttle bus and believe they are this year.

It's been reported that Walkergate's 11284, 11293, 11300 and 11501 have gone south for a little holiday at the Cheltenham Gold Cup Festival this year.  11284 and 11501 also attended last year.

There's normally about 50 vehicles from across the Stagecoach empire brought in to operate shuttle services between the railway station, the town centre and the racecourse.  Logistically it's a huge challenge, but the local Stagecoach team have been doing it for many years and seem to have a pretty good setup.  However, this year there's a rail strike affecting the trains on Thursday 16th, so what that'll look like from an operations point of view is anybody's guess!

Thanks, had a feeling it was. To be fair to them they're usually quite good at it, I've used one a few year back at one of the Open's and it was spot on tbh.

No one knows not until the cast off e300s are done
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News
22408 has today entered service at Stockton which I believe is the last one as I’m unsure if 22443 will ever be used again. 22890,24117&24123 seem to be the only ones left to transfer but all 3 are currently having work done in Slatyford engineering.

Why stagecoach north east fleet L driver buses well there get new colours for the L driver fleet. I seen one new colours but was red like new livery colours.
