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

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.

Cheltenham Festival I guess?
RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News
Yeah the Cheltenham Festival is on from Tues 14th to Fri 17th. Usually bring in buses from all around Stagecoach.

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.
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.
