RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - F114TML - 10 Mar 2024

Another single ticket anomaly is the 10 and 11 in Sunderland. If you get on an 11 on Holmeside, you can't buy a ticket through to Fordfield Road (the ticket would run out at Phoenix Road where the turning circle is, and before the £2 fare I remember the ticket machine throwing an error if you selected £2.70 on Holmeside), but if you got on at the Willow Pond, you can go through (assuming the bus is, too)

It's the same in the Grangetown direction.

Seems a bit messed up, guess if you wanted to travel further you just got charged to Phoenix Road then just stayed on?

(I don't know the route so assuming this isn't some form of wacky journey doubling back on yourself for the sake of it)

Yes, I don't think they've replaced anything yet with 10633, 27740 and 37301 on loan to Walkergate.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 16 Mar 2024

Has someone seen on buses time why 26281 has not been in service for long time now ? dose anyone know why?

I remember when they were allocated on the 16 Bus Station-Ecton Brook, they were 4 year old at the time, really good performers, i think just as i left they were being replaced, or capacity increased with ALX400's, was August 2010

Any idea why there’s a stagecoach bus parked in sunningdale school in Sunderland? It’s been there weeks

School trip/private hire and it broke down.
Haven't been able to get it back out. 

Heard it could be there until at least the 6 weeks holidays.

RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - ReDemPTiion - 19 Mar 2024

Does anyone know where 27181 is? Had a crash 13th February hasn’t been seen since. I’m guessing it’s being repaired somewhere.

Depends if the accident resulted in a fatality, then in could be being stored as evidence, bit like what happened with GNE's 5292 a few year ago

I have 22480 parked in a school field near the gate


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 20 Mar 2024

26281 is now in new colours it says on buses time.


RE: Stagecoach North East Latest News - Glen1974 - 21 Mar 2024

Is 26281 getting repainted in the new colours or off the road? One minute it says on bus timetable it's being repainted then it says its off the road what is right?

22480? U mean 22408? 22480 hasn't been part of the fleet for a long time
