Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - June 2016

35189 is at the back of Sunderland depot

Noticed 22079-22082 no longer has via city centre on the front window
I'm guessing these will leave Sunderland on Saturday evening

When there is some news, it will be posted.

That will save you having to ask the question every few days.

OK mate

stagecoachbusdepot, do you know what buses Sunderland have lost due to the changes from today, expect for 22079-22082?

I was on a stagecoach bus in shields today and the driver was on about the 30 and x20 interworking using deckers.
I dont think the 30 can actually use deckers.

in Busways days (south shields to cleadon) their used to be all sorts on that route from minibuses to double deckers.

Hi Michael - 22079-82 are the only confirmed departures so far, the balance of departees expected to comprise members of the 397xx batch.  Full details will be posted on http://stagecoach.mybesthost.com once confirmed.  An in depth feature on the Sunderland changes should also be going live on the site tomorrow morning.

Cheers for the info, I'll keep checking the site .

Any pics of stagecoach buses on their new routes in Sunderland. Bet a few people got caught out today

Today will be the worst, with the 5 running its new Monday-Saturday route and the 12, 18 and 19 all running new routes along with service 3 serving two locations instead of one.

No reason except for passenger numbers why deckers couldn't be used.

They have interworked both services in the past as 30 and X20, and previously extended both services from Boldon Asda to Fellgate and reverse and operated as 30 and 31.

From discussions I've had with colleagues it's unlikely the X20 and 30 will interwork and won't have Deckers on them.

In another note, ELC Kinetic MAN's should be heading north today with the possibility of going to Sunderland first.

Don't know where 39706 is yet, But I'm sure more info will come about.

The main suspects, MAN 18.220 22067 and 22070 have not left ( yet ) 22070 is on the X20s while 22067 is still off the road I believe.

Though 34611 hasn't been spotted today so I wouldn't be surprised if that's gone, And 33401s fate has been sealed now ( thank god )

Yet why 34605 didn't get withdrawn guess it be withdrawn when newcastle get new buses

34605 is on the 18 at sunderland so it hasnt left

I'm not sure, Though 22067 has been out ages so that might be first to go, 22070 is still workable.

22067 is off with a blown engine. It's in the middle of a rebuild at South Shields and should move to a new depot once repaired
