Is that now a South Shields bus?


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 18 Feb 2025

26283 and 27249 have swapped. Connecting the dots livery has returned to Stockton.

Not as far as I’m aware; just having work done on behalf of Slatyford.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 18 Feb 2025

26287 has just arrived at Slatyford in the new livery. Couldn’t get a photo as I was driving out of the depot (I work there)

I wonder if Slatyford are keeping it though. It’s got a Euro 5 engine like 27179&180 so I’d imagine the 3 of them will go to Sunderland since the 272’s are heading to Stockton


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Teessider2014 - 19 Feb 2025

26282 is due to leave Stockton tonight, electric full roll out delayed due to a reason that can’t be discussed on here! One is due to enter service on Friday though.

Assumed they would hang onto that one as long as possible due to the heritage livery - presume will be into paintshop asap, which is a shame

Plan still to have the 262’s head to slatyford despite the issues being faced with the electric roll out? One to enter service this Friday (21st)?

I’ve heard it is entering service at slatyford in Cleveland transit be a while before it’s painted

Yeah - E300’s will move the other way with every MMC Swap for now

How long will it take to swap them? Seems to be one a day apart from yesterday when 26287 showed up after 26283

Shame then really as they could have left it till last.  I am guessing they won’t paint another bus in Transit colours to make up for it.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 19 Feb 2025

There should repaint one new Electric yutong buses in the Cleveland transit colours if going be all Electric buses fleet?

Can't see them doing another one, suspect the heritage thing is done now, anniversary was last year - we'll probably see them all go slate blue just a shame the Transit one was the last to be completed and can't have operated in Teesside for more than about 6 months.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 20 Feb 2025

Do you think Stockton new Electric yutongs well come in new livery when come to stagecoach Stockton depot ?


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 20 Feb 2025

26282 Cleveland Transit livery is now at Slatyford.

Not my photo. Credit to the person who took it


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - missedbus - 20 Feb 2025

36965-7 are now tracking on South Shields routes, and 39708/20/1 appear to have come off at lunchtime today, possibly withdrawn?
36968/70 also now working for Stockton, presumably 36969 to follow and these may possibly cause Stockton's MAN/E200s to be withdrawn also.

From the sounds of things - 36467/78 and 36965-7 have indeed transferred to South Shields to replace their MANs.
Stockton meanwhile have gained 36968/70 and reports from an internal source there suggests that 39715 is now parked up without its ticket machine baseplate while 39730 has been taken off service this afternoon (39726 is still on the road right now)


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 20 Feb 2025

Any idea what the next 262 that’s coming up? And what 272 is going down? Wonder if it’ll all be complete over the weekend

26277 in Newcastle now.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 20 Feb 2025

(20 Feb 2025, 7:01 pm)N391OTY wrote 26277 in Newcastle now.

26277 came up Tuesday night. My guess is either 26290 or 26289 as both off road early today


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 21 Feb 2025

26278 now at Slatyford. 26285 was mentioned to be the one coming last night and is not tracking today, maybe coming up some point today as 73089 has entered service?

Yes 73089 entered service as planned


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 21 Feb 2025

I believe 27179, 27241 and 27251 have transferred to Stockton but neither are tracking, have they entered service yet?

Only 9 more to do, wonder if it’ll all be done over the weekend or will it be another 9 days?


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - TransitObserver - 24 Feb 2025

Hasn’t been a swap between Slatyford and Stockton since Thursday, is it starting up again tonight? I last heard either Sunday (yesterday) or Monday (today) but nothing transferred yesterday. Anyone know anything?

26277 moved north on Friday instead of the intended 26284 - mainly due to it being back in the depot earlier than planned due to its second breakdown that day.

Although 73089 remains the only one out in service, a number of Yutongs are now sat outside in the yard this morning - including 73091

26284 is off the road today, could it be heading to Slatyford today?


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 24 Feb 2025

73090 has entered service today on 36 service.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 24 Feb 2025

Wasn't 26277 one of the first ones to move earlier last week, was it another example which moved on Friday?

Yeah 26278 was the most recent one, should be a one transferring tonight as well but unsure of what.
