Either that or they're rebranding to Boragamorch

I googled that name, and (unsurprisingly!) got nothing.
However, the dreaded AI overview invited me to "provide more context about where I saw the term", and I was SOOOO tempted to respond "You should know; you put it on the side of a bus!"

27177 is on the 16 today... sounds broke, making a right noise.


Edit: took off and replaced by 73188.

It won't be out until all drivers are fermilwised with it  and all

Ok mate

Anyone else think the new electrics at Slatyford are gonna struggle?, saw one the other day on the 30/31, it was packed, not even standing room, they're gonna really struggle on matchdays

37317 is at Slatyford from South Shields. Anyone know if that’s permanent? Way too many E200’s at Slatyford now
36468-36477
37301
37312-37319
Total of 19. I’d like to think if we’ve got loads of the newer 37***’s the older 364**’s should leave then.

Is 37317 not swapping with 37301 then Shields have batch 37301-37308 and Slaty have 37312-37319?

37301 is Euro 6 hence why it went to Slatyford in the first place so I don’t think that would happen but who knows at this point.

Is 37317 not also Euro ,6 as it is regularly covering X34

(04 Nov 2025, 8:26 am)Theboyle92 wrote From Today Yutong E12s will be back again on X24s following feedback from the drivers, Scania Enviro 300 SG buses (28XXX) that are remaning on the road at Sunderland are due to be withdrawn at either the end of this week or next and will be replaced with 27XXX from then on until 9/10 more E12s arrive in the future.

Only 28001-3/5 and 28018 is out today


Edit: 3 more have came out of the depot...

28006/13/15.

27248 is now working from Shields, wonder if that is replacement for 37317. Strange that Sunderland is transferring E300s out when they are trying to get rid of the gas buses.

Yeah it’s Euro 6, I’m surprised one of our 36468-36477 didn’t go to replace it. Same when we got Hartlepool 37319 surprised we didn’t give them on of the 364**’s

27823 seems to have returned to Walkergate from Slatyford. It was originally sent to Slatyford following 19432 reentering service so I wonder what’s changed.

Was just thinking if the Gas Buses are due to be replaced this week, would it be a good move to reinstate some of the Euro 6 241xx series MANs from Slatyford & operate them out of Sunderland?

I'm sure there's also some 271 series E300s still due to return service that could possibly allow more 280s to be withdrawn & if that's still not enough, more cascades from other divisions.

It would be ideal once the charging situation is sorted for Slatyford for them to take their remaining 6 Yutongs & then have the majority of the fleet operating in the correct places...

I don’t think the 241’s would be a good idea at Sunderland they’re not great buses. 

73191-73194 must be due back from Scotland soon with them now receiving their batch of E12’s so I can see them 4 going to Sunderland on loan for a bit

None of 191-4 have tracked since November 7th or 8th

(12 Nov 2025, 12:35 pm)stagecoachfan wrote None of 191-4 have tracked since November 7th or 8th

Could potentially be on their way back then. Would make sense for Sunderland to get them plus 73190 as that’s just sat around doing nothing. 

West Scotland 73222 SJ75 XOY in the new livery too, must admit it looks nice in the we’ve got you livery.

There is a post on RailUK saying they have found their way to Leyland....

73191 was driven to a yard in Leyland on Monday with 73192 following yesterday. 73193 en-route today. (Just passing Penrith).

73191 reported on bustimes as being at Rugby

I'm sure the drivers enjoyed doing that

So what’s the plan with them? Because I doubt Slatyford would want them with high mileage. Do we think Slatyford might get new ones from another batch when the chargers are finally done?

Aren’t 73053/4/5/6 that are at Stockton originally from Rugby? I wonder if 73191/2/3/4 are their replacement and Stockton are keeping those 4. Would make sense Slatyford getting more new ones when the chargers are done.

apparently 73190 is at Sunderland depot according to last night's tracking

(13 Nov 2025, 8:03 am)bob22222 wrote apparently 73190 is at Sunderland depot according to last night's tracking

Still on the back yard at Slatyford. It was a mistrack 73189 was on that board last night but hey at least it’s on bustimes now

Another bridge closed for tests. South Shields   River Drive Bridge, Heugh Street closed for inspections following recent review.  6 months of inspection

Stagecoach routes 10 and E1 diverted away with no alternative facilities

Think a shuttle will be soon be required here, if closed for 6 months.

The Nexus learning centre directly underneath will remain operational (for now)

Going to be a few bridges getting shut down at this rate.  This one is from 1930s

Are 73053,6 getting replace because there are rugby buses stockton can't keep much long if on loan to stockton. Stockton have get some more yutongs because there post be 66 yutongs and one U11dd altogether.

Slatyford blew the power in the depot again last night charging the electric buses. A lot of them are low charge today 73181 is already below 30% at 12pm so will probably be taken off at some point. They should send them to Sunderland for the time being until we get proper chargers in, it’s pointless doing it like this. Work hasn’t even started on chargers yet, no workmen even in or around the depot!

Ok sorry mate

(14 Nov 2025, 3:49 pm)ReDemPTiion wrote Well Glen if you count them all there’s a total of 66! Rugby have gotten 73191-73194 so looks like Stockton are keeping 73053-73056 and it’s not the end of the world stop crying about it. 
Genuine question is there not a way to ban Glen from these forums? Keeps asking the same questions and it’s very annoying!!

Here is a thought, how's about we ban you for always complaining about Glen's repeat questioning, have not stopped to think along with other members of the forum that this member may have learning difficulties and perhaps does not realise the repetitiveness of his questions, appreciate it can be annoying but it is not intentional in his defence, how do think your actions and the actions of other members of this forum as it's not just you may make this person feel?

He's clearly enthusiastic about Stagecoach Buses and is part of the Forum because he shares the same level of enthusiasm as the rest of us but displays in a different way to what a normal person would.

Don't be a dick about it as the way your acting towards Glen and you may fail to realise this is in a discriminatory manner which as an Adult with Autism myself I will no longer tolerate as I am sick of reading this section of the forum and reading the negative comments towards a member of the forum for just asking a question.

Glen also should not at any point have to apologise either as he has just done when he hasn't done anything wrong.

Do it then I have lenin. difficulties.i can't read or write and add up to yes repeat myself so Is the treat people like me.
