Will try and update the fleet lists tonight but I'm awfully busy with coursework for the time being...

A change of plan - 45/84 are now both booked for E200s except for the last weekday 45 which is booked a decker off 223s, although tonight it's a little more supersize

The Neoplan has made it out onto the 45?! Crikey!
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Dan - 31 Mar 2015
Making my way through the list of jobs I have to do tonight as I have a bit of spare time on a weekday (for a change!)

Think I'm going to try and ride the 1720 45 out of Boro at some point as it seems to chuck up some interesting workings.
Apparently the Neoplan will be attending the North East Bus & Coach Show at the MetroCentre this year (according to a comment I received from Stagecarriage's Flickr)

It should be in use at the 500 Group running day the week before too

I've never been on a Neoplan. I don't know the Middlesbrough/Stockton area too well to be honest, but the 45 seems quite an easy route to work around, a ride between Middlesbrough and Billingham on it then anything back from there would be a nice little adventure!
What's it's normal allocation out of interest (or is it just anything gets put on it)? If they ever have one of their Olympians on... Well...!

Apparently this run is normally booked as a double decker as it runs off the 223.
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - Cock Robin - 02 Apr 2015
Yes, regularly an Olympian the last run. The rest of the day the 45's a B10BLE or Enviro 200. You can get a £4 Stagecarriage day ticket.

45 is now E200 worked as they are more fuel efficient compared to the B10BLEs hence why one of the pair is leaving the fleet very soon I understand as well as the Vario.

All depends on the day to day availability of the fleet. Now the other Solo is back on the road it gives them a bit more flexibility
RE: Stagecarriage of Grangetown - omnicity4659 - 10 Apr 2015
16 (KX04 HRL) is in the dark red livery with the new Stagecarriage fleetnames.
Edit: just noticed that its already been reported - just thought that I'd post it as its "livery unknown" in the fleet list.
