(02 Mar 2023, 9:08 pm)ReDemPTiion wrote According to one of the controllers at Slatyford we will be getting another 27*** tonight anyone know which one it is? 

Also it’s believed Stagecoach don’t have any agreement with Newcastle City Council regarding the non compliant buses in the clean air zone and will most likely get a big fine once all buses have been replaced. Surprised they haven’t had them all changed sooner.
If I’m correct it should be 27242

Cheers, my guess is for 24119 as it was on a service 7 to Metrocentre and has been changed mid route.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - glen - 02 Mar 2023

22889 is at Stockton now


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Lollist - 02 Mar 2023

The MAN ALX300S are still coming down from Newcastle-Stockton right? If they are then practically all the 64/65 E300s will be gone YAY!!

Should be, 22408-413,22428,443&444 are the remaining ALX300’s that will be heading that way. 22443 has been off road for a while unsure if you will get that or not. 22411’s gearbox went the other night I think it is getting repaired so should still go with the others. 22570,574,581,24117,119 are the remaining Enviro 300’s. 22581 broke down on 20th February and is now just sat at the back of slatyford depot unsure if that is now withdrawn.

Is this confirmed or just predictions. Surely the ex Highlands buses are going to withdraw something which I assume with the ALX300's and there's no need for 40 single Decker's at Slatyford either unless I'm missing something.

Just predictions based on them being all non compliant buses for CAZ. I don’t think Slatyford are getting all 271**’s and 272**’s some should be staying at Stockton but I think the highland buses are to allow a few extras to head north as Slatyford are definitely struggling for buses.

All the 272s are going with the majority of the 271 fleet

Thank you, was thinking they can't need that many up here. Guessing it'll be roughly the same number as the MMC's which were originally planned to come up here.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - ReDemPTiion - 03 Mar 2023

27244 is now at Slatyford unsure as to what’s gone south but I believe it may be 24119

Nothing here as of yet as I’ve not long been to the depot maybe it’s on its way down


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Kuyoyo - 03 Mar 2023

22889 has now entered service at Stockton and is on the 12 board that does a multitude of services through the day - started on the early 61, then a few trips to Hardwick on 58s and a single 57 before taking up 12s at 9.57. On Wednesdays and Fridays this board is out until late on 12s and 38s until 2338 at the Parkway Centre.

27812 has arrived at Stockton planned to be in service by next week the latest


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - logidoodah - 05 Mar 2023

12082 has just broke down in service in the middle of Shields road as of typing this. To make matters worse it is the crossroads (for Byker metro).
Unsure what the problem was as I was on a different bus.

Them hybrids are getting worse each day. According to bustimes 12068 and 12069 haven’t been seen since October. Anyone know what’s up with them?

Anyone know what buses are next for transfer and when we can expect it to happen?


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - ReDemPTiion - 06 Mar 2023

27728 NK11 BFP is at Slatyford from Sunderland unsure if that’s temporary vehicle cover or permanent.

Might be a 278** or one of the other new slaty e300s


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - glen - 06 Mar 2023

4 more E300 have go to Slatyford from Stockton depot according busestime today I think?

No no it's coz most of the Stockton routes have been taken from the route list and merged into Newcastles


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - glen - 06 Mar 2023

Thanks for info mate


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Lollist - 06 Mar 2023

Its so annyoing they have removed the stops on junction road norton as well (on bustimes map)


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - ReDemPTiion - 07 Mar 2023

Older Enviro 300’s and ALX300’s have been put onto 6/7 today and the euro 6 24000’s have been put on the expresses. I wonder if it’s still going to be a while before the buses are transferred and they’re doing this to keep them away from the city centre.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Youngymmv - 07 Mar 2023

27631 (SV10DMZ) had been pictured in Shields depot fresh from repaint. Not sure if it’s just there as a stop over or intended for service

27631 is indeed intended for use at South Shields - no doubt allowing a MAN E200 to be withdrawn once its MOT expires.
Likewise, rumours are one of the examples presently at Stockton is destined for use at Hartlepool given the impending withdrawal of further MAN E200s when their MOTs expire at the end of the month - most likely for main use on the 6/7 boards that also work the UTC runs.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - glen - 07 Mar 2023

It says on busestime that buses E300 27631 was going to Stockton depot why has go to South shield depot?

Fleet data on BusTimes can be amended by individuals without regard for the actual allocations; indeed, there were cases last year of wholesale vandalism to the data by one individual.  Even if a proposed change of allocation has been entered in good faith, it doesn't mean it will actually happen that way, and BusTimes can never be relied on to be any more than a useful guide to allocations.

RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Retro Nero - 08 Mar 2023

Good for Shields to have a mixture of types, I remember before busways days when all Shields standard fleet were all atlantean where as Byker and Slatyford had mixture of Atlantean and Scania Metropolitan and Fulwell and Hylton Rd had Atlantean and Daimler Fleetlines and even the odd MCW


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - ReDemPTiion - 08 Mar 2023

Bustimes showing 22341 at Stockton is this correct? If so what’s replacing it and is the replacement going to Walkergate or Slatyford as 341 was at Walkergate but originally a Slatyford bus?


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - glen - 08 Mar 2023

Yes you are right 22341 is at Stockton.
