Now back out in service at Slatyford - photo credit to Dave Maher, of the 'Stagecoach Bus Enthusiasts' Facebook group.

Slatyford finally getting some re paints in now. It's strange how slow Slatyford and Walkergate are doing there's. I'm guessing Sunderland is getting there's done the quickest because that's where they get done

It's out on the 35 today

I'd also guess that cus of covid restrictions,its down to what buses they have spare to cover for repaints aswell as buses off the road for maintenence,while maintaining the capacity of routes while abiding to the social distancing,there will be a method behind it

27175 has new colours at Stockton.

Looks like theres a 3rd version of the local livery (27730 here) and apparently this one is from perth, scotland.

The livery variation on 27730 is being repeated across the country and right under Stagecoach noses in Perth, however 28019. 36093/976/980 and 37310 all appeared without the black light frames. there is no consistency anywhere it seems.

What do you mean??

Stagecoach on Teesside 27239 is done in new colours.

Three of the more recent local repaints this week, 36976 in Hendon, 37310 in Marsden and 22581 in Lemington.

Despite the rest of the country retaining black light frames like 27730

Probably wrong Thread, Move if necessary!

I have noticed that Enviro 200MMC 26063 has lost its orange 'moustache' (as you might say), I have saw this on various occasions recently. Not sure if more than one has been done or just saw this particular bus a few times. Like IIRC Enviro 400MMC 10639  which has the same. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I mean I prefer it even though I'm all for bright colours (yes I like the 2020 Livery) however I think 3 colours is enough for the front of the bus i.e. Navy Blue, Black and White. (Plus the  orange normally).  I don't know if this is a repaint (probably not) or repair but I thought I'd post as at least 2 MMC's (26063/10639) look like now.

Could finally be getting a 200mmc being done and an older 400mmc as well

 hopefully soon either of the 2016 deckers or singles are the 'right age' to be repainted as stagecoach like to do it every 5 years

Every 5 years. Wow there's still hybrids in the old green. And that was meant to be fazzed out about 2 years ago. God knows why they left. I think 4 in green

2 left, 065 and 068 I think, 061 is in for a repaint atm I think

Wasnt 061 done a while back,could possibly be 081,technically though,they all need repainting because of the change of livery,by the time they do that,they livery probably would of changed again lol

Think I seen 081 on the 1 last week, not seen 061 in a long time plus it’s not been seen on bustimes.org for a while unless it’s lost it’s ticket machine, seems to be a few funny ones atm like one of the e200s having 10646 ticket machine

Quite possible

12081 is almost complete at the Wheatsheaf, just white lining to do. 12061 has not been in traffic for a long while and is still in Stagecoach Green

19641 & 28019 complete and due to re-enter traffic shortly.

37311 in for repaint after repairs to lower panels.

27159 at Stockton is in new colours livery now.

Another variation on the livery. 27729 sporting blue lights but retaining the white bib.

19211 now has blue lights and bib akin to 12081 and 19388/641. presume this is yet another change from up top.

Can someone at stagecoach decide what the front what's to look like. There's what 4 different versions

Are Sunderland trialing livery variations for Stagecoach or something. There are now 4 different front end types! Somebody needs to make a decision as it’s getting as silly as arrivas multiple mix and match livery’s lol

Hartlepool 200 36462 is here for paint.

re versions:

I saw an E400 at Hull recently in new livery with white headlight surrounds!

So, if you wish to experience the Specialist livery, you'll want to get yourself down to Bristol and seek out ALX400s 18420, 18421 and 18422.  They seem to work standard services fairly regularly as well, if you want to ride them!

closer specialist versions at Hull (27880-2)
