22462 likewise.

22048 remained on service 63 all day without being changed over, but 39719 replaced something on the 62 I believe as I saw it come onto Blackett Street out of service and then later saw it on the 62.

16834 on 36s too, may have just been covering mileage, though given who was driving it, I'm not too sure.

Will it return to South Shields after the Commonwealth Games?

22409 appears to be having some problems at present, leaving the X47s one short (22413 doesn't seem to be viewed as the default spare for that route any more). 22409 expired at a bus stop on Ponteland Road on Friday evening and when the driver got it restarted there were some unhealthy sounding screeches coming from the engine. It was broken down again this morning...

Also not technically odd but 19441 on 38 and 19444 on 12. I thought the number 1 was allocated 19430-446.

the 1 ended up using 19198

Since they started debranding 19430-41 (and possibly before) the batch started being regularly allocated to any E400 decker service. Apart from the wifi fitted examples for the 62/63/X63 the rest of the E400s can pop up anywhere.

22048 also on the 100s and 22734 on X47s again.

Which buses have Wi-Fi. Is it 19670-683. The Walkergate 62/63/X63 always uses 60 plates. I'm still getting used to seeing 57/58 plates on them while Newcastle buses are in Glasgow.

Are the 62/63/X63 going to have the Stockton buses working for them. When Walkergate borrowed buses from Scotland and Yorkshire the 60s hardly had them because they were stuck on the 12/38.

19141 – 19156, 19670 – 19682, 22341, 27506 – 27510 and 28001 – 28040 are all fitted with Wi-Fi.

Stockton's Tridents have mainly appeared on services 12 and 38 so far.

I'm told that 28023 is on service 4 today - I just hope the gas bus services have a full allocation!
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
22022 was on the X34 this morning. It was replaced with 27736 later in the afternoon.

Yes I just hope the new 36s don't have stuff all over the windows.
