They won't be - South Shields are one of the few depots that are, on paper at least, 100% DDA compliant.

Will 20551 be withdrawn so a newer bus can take its place in driver training?

1823 #3 arrival from Hylton Castle performs the 1826 #20 departure from Sunderland.
1852 #3 arrival from Farringdon performs the 1856 #20 departure from Sunderland.
1919 #3 arrival from Farringdon performs the 1926 #20 departure from Sunderland.
I'm not sure what the 1809 #20 departure does, unless it goes back to the depot out of service.
The 1956 #20 departure works off a 3 which performs a full 3 (1807 departure from Farringdon, 1845 arrival at Hylton Castle - 1855 departure, 1931 arrival at Farringdon).
I've always thought Sunderland's services were reviewed annually around this time of year ready for service changes (if necessary) in April.
Must have worked it out wrong- i thought the 20 that arrived in town at 1817 did the 1826 20 to Pennywell and then the 1905 3 from the town.

Nah, think that goes back to the depot out of service at that point.
The 20 was certainly fully operated by gas buses today, and 22666 wouldn't have appeared on the 1905 3 if it worked that way.

Will have to have a look one night! I suppose they could if they do already.
Does the last #16 to Red House starting at Vine Place

Cheers, ADL!
That will be why I haven't seen the buses in Park Lanw then. Don't regularly see Park Lane at that hour, so clearly on the very few occasions I have been there, the bus terminated elsewhere.

The first ex-Sunderland MAN confirmed as transferred to Stockton is 22463, used this afternoon to cover a late-running 37 from North Tees Hospital - photo below

Stagecoach North East fleet list updated. I have only updated the fleet lists to show 21104's removal from the fleet, 22066 losing its sub-branding for service 37 following repaint, 22666/735 having gained a rear advertisement for Southmoor Academy and the gas buses entering service. I will update the ALX300 cascades/withdrawals upon publication of Stagecoach North East's fleet cards (or if anyone on here has a complete list?) - make my life easier.
