I'm guessing that a South Shields but broke down in Sunderland and that was used to help with service

It was indeed 27739 for a knock in the engine but that's all I know

It's on the Economics today
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
17025 also ended up on 36s - while 16834/6 both ended up working trips on the same 12/14 working (16834 worked the 1335 arrival on the 14, 16836 taking over to work the 1341 12).
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
Right, a long list from Stockton today:

27158 24105 24106 and 24110 were on 52/58s by the end of the day - 24105 is still out on xx20 52s tonight. 24106 was a replacement for 22671.
24102/3/9/12/4 were the allocated 37s today (24109/12 are out tonight).
And despite the new E300s - 22452/73/671 and one DDA-spec example all spent time on 36s today
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
South Shields depot have used Enviro 300s on service 30 (not sure if they interwork with services 10/11 on a Sunday) for the past few Sundays. I am guessing that this is due to the Enviro 400 use on the Economic routes but could be wrong.

(19 Oct 2014, 3:59 pm)AIG20 wrote I haven't seen E400s on the Sunday "E" services for quite a few weeks. Speaking of E400s, the Sunday X34 service will be starting again in a few weeks time - though nothing has been mentioned on VOSA yet...

I think a few of the early E6 runs (between Market and the Marsden Inn) inter-work with service 30 between 7:00 & 8:00, and with service 17/18 between 8:30 and 10:00 - though I could be wrong. Big Grin
Not so much interwork but more it's a way of getting buses out into service

On Ecos today.
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
(22 Oct 2014, 8:07 am)AIG20 wrote MAN ALX300 22067 is once again on the "E" services today, alongside 22050 - one behind the other. That means there must be an odd working on the X20 today.

22050 has just left Sunderland on E1 Smile

Edit
Next along was 22067 on E2. Currently going across Wearmouth Bridge.
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
22067 is an awful ride from Marsden to Westoe. Usually not that bad on the enviros. Struggled to use my phone.
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
Has stagecoach sorted the problems with the gas fueling system yet so they can finally have the gas buses out on Sundays!
Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.
RE: Stagecoach North East: Rare and odd workings
Unidentified E300 on the x34 10mins back, heading away from Newcastle.

Gas buses don't work Sundays because they don't have enough fueller Shunters on a Sunday night
