Transfers still happening between Stockton and Slatyford? Only 1 262 is not on a late board tonight and that is 26290 so I’d imagine it’s that, that is moving up tonight

A bit unrelated but looks like 26067 now has NSA ss there is a photo on TikTok with the bus having the screen box thingy(forgot what it’s called)

When the charging infrastructure is signed off, can only use 2 at the moment as there is only 1 temporary charger

New law coming in 2026 requires all buses to have NSA. All buses will be fitted with screens and NSA. If 26067 does have it now it might not be working yet

Edit: 26071 and 26077 apparently have the screens on them now as well. Nice to see they’re starting to get them installed on the buses that don’t already have them.

73090 was quite badly vandalised in Hardwick today…… numerous windows put through by the scum youth in the area…..

Wow brand new bus in service & it already get vandalised by scum youths, they should pay stagecoach the money to repair the bus instead of stagecoach paying for the repairs, they caused it they should pay for the repairs, can’t have nothing around where these idiots are

Scum.

Parents should pay for the damages.

Parents shouldn’t, the youths that did it they should pay for it they caused it they should pay for the damages

I think most services have been pulled from Hardwick now because of this which obviously affects services to North Tees Hospital as the 57 58 and 59 all go though the main estate although I think they might still be serving the hospital itself

Services are only ever pulled for 2 hours and only around the area of the vandalism - averaging a bus a day at the moment! Then people wonder why there’s a bus missing the next morning…. Very similar to the issues Arriva where facing in Middlesbrough last year - that took huge action from the police and the council to get it under control! Unfortunately Stockton Council enforcement and the police don’t seem to be too bothered!

It's Stockton for you what do u except  full of idiots same in the town!!!

No transfers between Stockton and Slatyford last night don’t think it’ll happen again until Monday. Only 6 left to do now shouldn’t take them much longer.

When are new Electric yutongs no 73089,106 going enter service at Stockton depot.

Probably not helped by a few buses been off the road due to the vandals.

Here’s something for people to wrap their heads around and see if they can work out what’s going on with Slatyford’s buses.

I work at Slatyford and pulled into the depot this evening on 26280. I said to a shunter these are nice but hard to keep time on them and he said yeah there’s more coming. I said yeah there’s still 6 left to come from Stockton and he said nope more like 8 or 9. Now Stockton only have 6 left where are the other 3 coming from?

I was thinking 27180/27181 would go to Sunderland but Sunderland tonight rang Slatyford and said do you have 27728 which we did and they have came and took it back tonight. It left the depot about 20:40. So to me it looks like Sunderland aren’t giving us the 277’s or taking 27180/181 so the question is where are the other 26***’s coming from?

What I’m trying to say is apparently Slatyford are getting 8 or 9 E200MMC’s to replace the 271/2’s where Stockton only have 6 left to give us. Where are the other 2 or 3 coming from? Seems Sunderland don’t want the 271’s and they took 27728 back from Slatyford the other night.
