Stagecoach North East: Fleet Vehicle History
Stagecoach North East: Fleet Vehicle History
As most of you will know from a similar thread in the Go North East section of the forum, we are currently trying to put together a history for each of the vehicles in the Arriva North East, Go North East and Stagecoach North East fleets.
If you can contribute towards this for Stagecoach North East, do post below. I'd prefer it if you had dates in terms of month and year in which these movements have taken place.
Ta!
With thanks to Richard Smiles and his fleet lists for the following info...
Will update fleet list vehicle history for each of the vehicles where appropriate later today.

There might be stuff you can use from the Vehicle Profiles at http://stagecoach.mybesthost.com
Not all of the vehicle types are up there yet, but more will be going live in the next few weeks.

Was thinking your comments about Jeffs site strange.
Now they make sense.
They used to be a great read.
