I am curious to what Vehicles will be attending the event, and will it be similar to the one in Carlisle where Vehicles came from other Depots further afield.
Coming back to this, I can confirm the following vehicles will be attending the Stockton Depot Open Day:
Stagecoach Own Vehicles
Carlisle's Alexander Dennis Enviro300 27141 or 27142
One of Sunderland's Scania K230UB/Alexander Dennis Enviro300GS
One of Walkergate's Alexander Dennis Enviro400H
Stockton-based Volvo Olympians 16834/6 will be operating the High Street-Depot shuttle, while I am hopefully Volvo B10B/Plaxton Verde 21037 will be on display due to its historic value as the last Transit vehicle in the Stagecoach fleet
Preserved Vehicles
The 500 Group's 1958-built Middlesbrough Coporation Dennis Loline 99 (JDC 599) will be on display (for anyone who doesn't come to the Teesside Running Day, this is a rare chance to see the vehicle which rarely attends other Rallies)
The 500 Group's 1973-registered Damlier Fleetline/Northern Counties L544 (JDC 544L) will be sharing the shuttles with 16834/6, quite possibly one of the final times it will be used for the general public for now.....
Because, making its preservation debut is 1977-built Bristol VRT/Northern Counties H106 (RDC 106R) whose 9-year restoration is all but complete. It is now freshly repainted into the original Cleveland Transit Jasmine and Green
It is also believed that preserved Hartlepool Tranport Bristol RE 93, Busways Volvo B10B/Alexander Strider 1902 (M902 DRG) and maybe even Scania L113/Alexander Strider 954 (M954 DRG) will be attending
As I'm helping out on the day (and will be at the event 2 hours before the gates open), I will endeavor to post what is on display etc on the morning of the day.
