Could see some of the ADL E400/ADL E400MMC/Scania E400MMC Order coming to the North East, along with some of the Orders for the Scania/ADL E300 Order also coming to the Region, more than likely be Newcastle/Stockton which receive Investment with Sunderland getting Cascades. 

(10 Mar 2015, 6:00 pm)Michael wrote Very much so, although Sunderland can't get new buses each year, its time for someone else... we can always hope a green bus round 5 happens....

(10 Mar 2015, 6:15 pm)Malarkey wrote To be honest I would rather see the funding which goes into Transport for Londons Infrastructure split with other Regions up and down the Country to ensure everyone gets a fair share of Investment.

"The only Stagecoach division I'm aware of is the one on service X20 at Fellgate Estate"

In other words it is highly likely that Stagecoach South Shields will get new buses to upgrade service X20, which will most likely be ADL E300s. If this does happen, it will allow MAN ALX300s 22050/67/70 to be cascaded to another depot.

As for Teesside - it seems to be highly likely Stockton will gain some investment this year, as Stockton is now the only depot officially to have an allocation of non-DDA vehicles. Of course, the matter of what for and how many can be debated (however my money is on examples for 12/39 - once it's been sorted out).

(10 Mar 2015, 7:50 pm)glen wrote I think stagecoach on teesside Should get new buses because they will have have lot t reg man left in the fleet because the t reg man have to withdrawn at end year

(12 Mar 2015, 9:29 pm)glen1234 wrote If stagecoach on Teesside don't get new buses to replace the  T reg man single decker this year they should get newly buses like 55 reg man alx 300 buses from stagecoach west Scotland to stagecoach east midlands have now maybe somethink like that
