Yeah thought it would've been. 39729 too I imagine as that came off even earlier than 39725.

Aye, there's a photo kicking around of a very dark blue decker kicking around. Has a small stagecoach logo towards the rear of the vehicle, between the lower and upper saloon.

Yes mate
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - ReDemPTiion - 05 Aug 2024
10646 in for repaint is this going into current local, the ‘new’ colours or the busways colours?
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - F114TML - 05 Aug 2024
The new livery looks absolutely rediculous.

What new livery? Is Local discontinued or is this a special livery?

Just about to send a photo of that, it looks absolutely awful
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - F114TML - 05 Aug 2024
The Local livery has its problems esp from a practicality standpoint. It is surprisingly complex given its rather basic concept (it's just the SC logo on a white background), which causes issues when panels need replacing and in trying to keep it clean. I don't think that's the best execution.
Fits the new uniform though.

At least it will hide dirt easily /s
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - Rapidsnap - 06 Aug 2024
Basically this new Black livery is cheap and simple to apply and "shouldn't result in variations between areas".
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - V514DFT - 06 Aug 2024
So local livery discontinued after just 4 years?
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - Economic505 - 06 Aug 2024
I think it looks better than the local livery to be honest. The only Stagecoach livery I really liked was the 1994 version that replaced Busways. Other than that, they are generally boring.

Don't agree. The Dark Blue is classy.

New livery after just 4 years, before the fleet has even been fully repainted from Beachball to Local? When can we expect to see this new livery in the North East? Does the new livery have a name, or just 'new Local' or something? Very surprised to see white ditched by Stagecoach, they have always been white.

Surely a dark bus is even worse. Keeping a black car clean is absolute nightmare. Seems absolutely ridiculous to have a livery which isn't which based imo where they could just botch up the current buses they've just repainted.
Seems an awful waste of money, especially when a fair chunk of the network is in areas planning franchising in the not too far future which is going to be, yet, another repaint.

It's not the new livery. It's a trial to see how it goes down
RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints - F114TML - 09 Aug 2024
Yeah, no idea how official it is so I won't share but I've seen a drawing of another version that has the swirls the full height of the vehicle and further forward so they don't wrap around the rear. Either way looks much better imo.

(31 Jul 2024, 7:43 pm)stagecoachbusdepot wrote Anyone know which beachball liveried E200 looked like being prepped for repaint at the Wheatsheaf earlier today? All of the remaining beachball examples look to have been in service and the registration plate was covered with tape so wondering if this is a recent import to the NE?
Assuming its the same vehicle, this is now parked up in one of the workshops, appears to be in ocean green base livery.

Yeah that one iirc is being donated to the school. Likely the same green as the green in the local livery.

Do you think that stagecoach North East well repaint the new black livery on own buses.
