There were certainly standees the second time I seen the 87 go out. I hadn't seen Kuyoyo's post until I was on the bus back up to Sunderland though.

(02 Jan 2015, 9:16 pm)tyresmoke wrote 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 Smile http://northeastbuses.co.uk/fleet/operators/index.php?operator=103

Very nice news re the Olympians. Smile

Undergoing collection this afternoon for the fleet is MAN 11.190/Optare Vecta M10DVS (M75DYG) from DJ International, Barrhead. It was new to Black Prince of Morley (Leeds). Photo from 'The Northern Road Transport Trust' Facebook group and @ John Atkin

And it's now been collected by it's new owner. Glad to say it's for preservation though Smile

Impressive!
Hopefully if Stagecarriage is used to host an enthusiasts' trip again, a ride on that can be arranged.

Nice!


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Kuyoyo - 18 Feb 2015

The latest purchase is another Solo - KX04HRL, sister to already owned KX04HRJ.

Information as always from John Atkin on 'buses northeast' Facebook group.


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - tyresmoke - 18 Feb 2015

Vario KF52UAE has been sold as a result


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - R852 PRG - 18 Feb 2015

What do Stagecarriage usually allocate to the 87?


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Tom - 18 Feb 2015

A Vario I think?


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Jimmi - 18 Feb 2015

(18 Feb 2015, 10:14 pm)MarcTheA4 wrote What do Stagecarriage usually allocate to the 87?

Either Vairo DE04XEZ or Solo KX04HRJ usually.


Vairo often appears on Wednesdays and Fridays when KX04HRJ is needed on the 88.


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Kuyoyo - 18 Feb 2015

Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday: KX04HRJ
Wednesday/Friday: DE04XEZ or R556LGH, also cover when KX04HRJ is unavailable (due to the corner at the end of Albany Bridge, only short wheelbase vehicles can manage it so the 2 B10BLEs can't work the 87)


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Kuyoyo - 11 Mar 2015

Following the unfortunate news that local operator Leven Valley Coaches will cease trading after Friday 20th March, Stagecarriage are stepping in to replace parts of their network that would otherwise leave large parts of Teesside without a service

Existing Services 455/456, 492, 45 and 84 have been hopefully secured for operation from Saturday 21st March, albeit with minor timetable revisions.

Keep yourself up to date by following us here on Facebook, More details soon!....

Glad to see someone else stepping in, lets hope these new routes don't put pressure on their current routes they run.

Does that mean all the area's which Leven Valley used to serve, are now covered once again?


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Teessider2014 - 11 Mar 2015

Still Stainton and parts of marton

Teesside Park also looks like it won't have a direct bus service after next week yet.

Solo KX04HRL has now entered service (in fact, it first appeared yesterday but everyone missed it) - seen covering sister HRJ on 87 today.

After originally being planned to be used on the 271, it will instead be for the 88 to allow HRJ to be used on the 87 (for now).

Curious question, what will happen with the Vehicles in the Leven Valley Fleet, could they not be passed onto Stagecoach/Stagecarriage.

I would imagine the newer members would be passed to Dales & District (B7RLE would replace the 03 reg Cadet on the 73, and new SR likely to go too I guess) and the rest sold. Will put any details I hear on the Procters thread.


RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Teessider2014 - 20 Mar 2015

Rumour at the minute is that SN05HDF is staying to go on the Teesside Uni park and ride, if not it could well be YJ64DXL.

Another rumour is that NX59BYC, is staying as a school bus, with it being fitted with seat belts!
