No depot is being greedy, they're just moving the buses around in the best way to fit the needs of the business as a whole and not one specific depot. Depots will make requests and push their needs, but it will be decided higher up what the commercial requirements are. You really need to stop this petty argument about who blows up more buses.

I think you both just need to realise that it's a business, and the management will make the decisions which make the most commercial sense and the decisions that will keep the shareholders happy above anything else. Even the depot managers will be unhappy at a lot of decisions that come from above, but that's how it works.

Exactly that’s what I’ve been saying commercial are the ones who makes the decisions where the buses go because my friend told me that aswell RE: Redcar depot - Mark66t - 13 Apr 2025 1534 as returned to Redcar under 1421 x94 RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 17 Apr 2025 All the withdrawn avenues have left redcar depot. E400 mmc parked in redcar depot today too.

But does anyone know if what the future is for Whitby? Obviously working with a local independent isn't a problem but Esk Valley has recently been bought over by GoAhead. Can't exactly see Arriva and GoAhead wanting to be partners in the long term, for the obvious reasons, due to competition locally nevermind anything else.

Arriva moved out of Esk Valley's yard many years ago - they now work out of the old Coastal & Country depot, which Arriva now own.

Ah that would make sense then, never realised they moved. Never down those parts - didn't even realise that existed, truth to be told. RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 30 May 2025 Drove past redcar depot yesterday. And noticed 4706 parked up not in service. Drove around seen 4704 being driven in NIS and a random pulsar parked up. Hopefully the evoras are on route. Any confirmation of when and same with the pulsars from Merseyside RE: Redcar depot - Storx - 30 May 2025 (30 May 2025, 8:47 am)Ryland wrote Drove past redcar depot yesterday.

Any confirmation of when and same with the pulsars from Merseyside Don't think it's been confirmed but they're starting to turn up at Luton and Bootle now so assume they're due very very soon. The Luton ones displacing their older examples to Merseyside which are displacing Pulsars. RE: Redcar depot - Ryland - 03 Jun 2025 Some envoras have arrived today at Redcar. Hopefully not long till they appear in service RE: Redcar depot - tyresmoke - 04 Jun 2025 (03 Jun 2025, 3:02 pm)Ryland wrote Some envoras have arrived today at Redcar. Hopefully not long till they appear in service Three arrived yesterday which is great to see this much needed investment for the X4 arrive. I’d expect it’ll be a month or so until we see them in service though.

Also judging from the pictures 2 temsa appear to be on death row/ maintenance roads 4704 and 4706 i believe RE: Redcar depot - Ianthegoon - 04 Jun 2025 (04 Jun 2025, 5:06 am)Ryland wrote Random question.

I presume that's a typo for low loaders, but here's what passed through MY mind when I saw that phrase! ![]() ![]() RE: Redcar depot - Mark66t - 04 Jun 2025 (04 Jun 2025, 12:15 am)busesofthenortheast wrote Until they end up on every route at Redcar like the Streetlites did Because streetlites where underpowered for the x4!
