RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Kuyoyo - 22 Sep 2014
New purchases have a very familiar look to them - thanks to John Atkin on 'The Northern Road Transport Trust' Facebook Group, collect today is ex-Velvet Volvo B10BLE/Alexander ALX300 R249KRG - new to Busways as 2249 and 21149 with Stagecoach Newcastle/Teesside/South Shields. Sister R245KRG is being collected on Wednesday. Both have been modified to meet DDA so are good for another few years - meaning B10BLE operation in the Teesside and Cleveland area will carry on beyond 2015.

I understand that R895XVM has been sold to DW Coaches in Chesterfield
Volvo B10M A6HOF has been sold also, and was delivered to Aberdeen on Thursday for onward transfer to Shetlands.

Just a reminder about the enthusiasts day I have organised at Stagecarriage this Sunday (16 November), picking up at Darlington Park Place at 0935 and Middlesbrough Brentnall Street at 1000, fare is £10 and various rides will be available on a selection of their varied fleet. Should be back in Darlington for about 1630. Fare is £10 a person, payable on the day.

Is that anything to do with the new link to various villages? Or just the same as the eve/Sun Leven Valley 77?
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Cock Robin - 11 Dec 2014
Must be providing new links else wouldn't have received dispensation? So why using an existing service number?!

Links Stockton > Hartburn > Elton > Longnewton > Yarm two days a week
77 to go with 87? Not like you can get confused between the two

I'd say its confusing having two service 77s to Yarm, even if one is daytime and one evening/Sundays. Why not 97?

Apparently its been changed to 88 now. Not sure how it affescts the 87. Surprised that they got dispensation to change it if it means a worsening of service on the 87 route, especially as the A66 is coming off Albany as well at the end of the month.

Don't think there's any change to the 87 as this 88 is funded by Stockton Council.
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Jimmi - 15 Dec 2014
New 87 timetable is now on Connect Tees Valley although it's just updated to include the Stockton to Hartburn section of the 88 runs.

Full 88 timetable is now also on Connect Tees Valley.

RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Kuyoyo - 17 Dec 2014
First day of the 88 is being provided by B10BLE VAG608R (R249 KRG), seen below on the first trip into Stockton

A piece on the Northern Echo's website about new service 88 restoring a bus service to Long Newton.

RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Kuyoyo - 31 Dec 2014
With today being the DDA Deadline day for 7.5 tonnes vehicles, it was fitting that Vario DE04XEZ would be on the 87, as seen at rest during its lunch break
Meanwhile, Solo KX04HRJ has finally had its makeover completed with the removal of the white stickers from either side of the front destination screen. It was used on the 88 today, hence DE04XEZ's appearance on the 87

It's on the 87 today too.

It appears that its paperwork has it down as a Coach, which means it is available for use for another 5 years.
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - tyresmoke - 02 Jan 2015
The other one (KF52UAE) was on the 271 - both have been re-certified with no standees as a coach, which don't have to be DDA until 2020 of course.
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - tyresmoke - 02 Jan 2015
Couple of updates from the Stagecarriage stable....
Scania VEZ9646 and Olympian L487NTO were both sold in the last few months.
New arrivals recently are Volvo B10M Premiere's M407BFG and N564XSA, Olympian N703LTN and Leyland Olympian H728DDL
Total fleet of 18 - I've completed the fleetlist now too
