It looks like Sunderland depot could be struggling with 19211, 24001, 27734, 27736, 28005, 28040, 39714, 39718 and 39728 all off the road according to Bus Times; and 24002, 24003, 34605, 35189, 39672, 39674 and 39710 currently on loan to Stockton.
I have no idea how Stagecoach will be able to run the scholars contacts they have gained as well as extra / duplicate peak services with the amount of vehicles currently unavailable / at other depots. The engineering teams at each depot must under a lot of pressure at the moment.
I assume the additional decker that Sunderland Depot needs for scholars contracts hasn't turned up either?
