Sorry for any confusion. No bother - the one for Carlisle will be 11157 when it arrives, the last of the CNL batch.

We have 34605/34611/35189. 34611 saw service in October but hasn't since.

On paper it shouldn't be used as it's part of the training school as a route learner. Suppose it's easy enough to use if they're desperate. Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2018 - TEN 6083 - 18 Dec 2018 Anyone know if 34611 (Christmas Bus) will be parked in Newcastle anymore this week like it’s been the last couple of days ?

I keep seeing single decks on it. Also, how come the 18 get double decks but the X63 doesn't?

Increasingly common to see singles on the X63 too, they seem to cope off-peak, especially on a Saturday. The MANs at Walkergate can pop up just about anywhere as they're tret like float vehicles aiding any sort of PVR on services, passed one of the ex-Yorkshire ones on the 22s this morning - the only place I'd be surprised to see one is the 1.

The oldest MANs will be replaced once further Yorkshire examples land. These withdrawn MANs will highly likely be sold for scrap - when this will happen I do not know. I've yet to sample the Yorkshire ones myself Glen, but they sound rather nice and seem to be settling into service much better than the Kinetics. They are mechanically and sound like the MAN Enviro 300s, but carry the older ALX300 bodywork. I don't believe there to be any immediate plans for the withdrawal of the 'newer' ALX300 (54 plate and newer) at the likes of Stockton, I'm sure information will be posted when further cascades or new vehicles are available to allow them to be withdrawn.

Difficult to say is normal since they got further ADL ones. On paper anything works anything at Hartlepool now, everything is "Enviro200" on paper rather than ADL/MAN Enviro200. Photos I've seen reflect that too. |
