According to bustimes 22581 is back in service on a service 7. I did see it yesterday in the depot and it had been put back together and fixed so I’m not sure if it’s a tracking error. Not sure if it’s planned to go to Stockton or just be used on 6/7 as that route does not go into the city centre.

27254 is currently having its connecting the dots branding removed in Slatyford engineering. Fully expecting it to be going for repaint and 27246/249 to follow suit.

Slatyford have put 36470 back together and that has been re-instated. Currently at Wheatsheaf for repaint, in theory ought to go to South Shields to balance 37313 which went to Slatyford some time ago. But anything could happen..

(27 Jun 2023, 10:24 pm)Busu284 Watch they don't returnThey're down there on loan whilst the full time buses are open topped and prepared for service. I believe the first 1 due back will be Scania E400 15719 if what I've read elsewhere is to be believed

Our fares in Sunderland are changing
From Sunday 9 July 2023, some of our ticket prices will change.
Prices will change for customers buying on buses, online, or on mobile. Monthly MegaRider Xtra payments will also change.

Cut the buses but put the fares up....................................
-----------
Edit: Just noticed a Megarider is going from £12.50 to £14
Surprised they haven't put an excuse on the changes page!
(01 Jul 2023, 4:13 pm)stagecoachfan I think what may have been meant was Hartlepool getting bigger buses temporarily to increase capacity on their normal routes.

Are the gas buses now starting to be withdrawn? 28036-40 now showing as withdrawn on bustimes. What is replacing them? I’ve heard the hybrids from Walkergate but they don’t have the new buses yet plus that doesn’t make much sense as they’re older and not very reliable..
