RE: Stagecoach North East - Recent Repaints
(12 Nov 2020, 6:09 pm)NewcastleOne wrote It could’ve but for the north east there’s only 2 services with a PVR of 6 that would count as long distance so there isn’t much sense having a small sub fleet. Also long distance vehicles tend to be a higher spec which the X34 batch of 4 E400s aren’t.
Yeah, good point. It would be good if they did though. This also means that the deckers can be used on other "local" routes in sunderland and not subject to the limited days and times of X24/X34 (Mon - Sat)

It will be interesting to see how the new local livery will look on the Gas Buses, taking the pod on the roof into account.
Wonder how they will slightly change it for the E300 Gas buses, Probably getting the local repaint?

I'm pretty sure that Stagecoach North East have no Enviro 200MMC's repainted. I think it is because if you look at the enviro 200MMC nationally for stagecoach it has the most variations, so probably why they haven't repainted any yet. Correct me if I am wrong
