RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2019 - deanmachine - 15 Dec 2019 (15 Dec 2019, 1:52 pm)Michael wrote Why are all the buses out in Sunderland today, not Gas buses?, surprised they're all normal Enviro's... I was thinking that too, all E200s apart from diesel E300s on the X24 and Es. It's like they've ran out of CNG.

I know that 11283 is operating on either the 39 or 40, and I think one of the new MMCs could be tracking as 19194 if that helps Update: Just remembered that 19194 may be 11287 RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2019 - S830OFT - 17 Dec 2019 36479 back in service and is on the 3/4/7/8.

RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2019 - neilwatson - 19 Dec 2019 I thought it was a misprint but one of the new MMC400s is 11502 instead of 11302.

It's 11502 for some strange reason. There is a picture on Flikr of it. RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2019 - AIG20 - 19 Dec 2019 According to the Shields Gazette and Sunderland Echo, Stagecoach will be putting extra buses on the X24 and X34 tomorrow and Saturday due to the Metro strikes. I assume they will have two busses running together every half hour? I'm sure this used to happen quite a lot on the X34 when a decker was unavailable. https://www.shieldsgazette.com/news/traffic-and-travel/metro-passengers-warned-avoid-catching-alternative-train-services-ahead-two-day-shut-down-during-drivers-strike-1343802?fbclid=IwAR1kVz2h849n5zjAa3kHzQlOARB-GHF6yHElHqg4zl_eO4WJxIVKhHOzj-U Also, According to Bus Times South Shields MAN E200 39702 is currently parked up at Sunderland Depot.

RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2019 - AIG20 - 21 Dec 2019 There is a photo on Facebook of Slatyford Man E300 22580 debranded and freshly repainted. Will the x4 ex-Scotland MAN E300s still be allocated to the 100 (assuming all are getting repainted) or will another four vehicles be getting allocated to this route and if so will they be getting branding applied? Also, an "E's" branded ADL E300 (27731 according to Bus Times as it is the only one not in service today) is parked at the rear of Sunderland depot so this must be next in-line for a repaint. There was a MAN E200 alongside it which I think may be South Shields' 39702 which I assume may also be getting a repaint.

They will likely be getting withdrawn - unless they get earmarked for the Cummins Euro6 conversion. They don't meet the upcoming LEZ scheme.

They don't meet the upcoming LEZ scheme. Don’t see why the North East would go to the time and cost of repainting and re-trimming a vehicle, only to pass on to another division? Surely suggests that they are going to be converted.

They don't meet the upcoming LEZ scheme. So, I assume there is a high chance of Walkergate and Slatyford getting lots more brand new buses (or newer cascades from elsewhere) next year to ensure that the entire fleet at both depots are LEZ compliant? Will any of the MAN E200s be getting a Cummins Euro 6 conversion next year, or could several of these be getting replaced with new vehicles next year as well? I wouldn't be surprised if there are some vehicle swaps between depots as well - MAN ALX300s being swapped with ADL E300s if they don't get replaced with brand new / newer vehicles. RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2019 - slp1976 - 23 Dec 2019 39702 back at Chi depot, according to Bus Times. RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - December 2019 - Youngymmv - 23 Dec 2019 Forgive my ignorance but do all services from slatyford and walkergate actually go into Newcastle city centre where the LEZ is. Can’t see them making sure every bus in depots meet the criteria if they don’t need to be. like South Shields only using certain buses on 10/11 as contract specific engine requirements.

The decline in numbers has resulted in alot of single decks back on some busy runs especially at peak times. |
