Was the third one to be done, back in March

Just hadnt seen it in a while then

Hi what colour are the learning buses going to be like is it plain white or are they going to be with just the blue front and with white back.

Information from Stephen Knight Media - Fleet News Ramblings:

Stagecoach North East
The full list of vehicles here to receive the New Stagecoach livery so far, are as follows:-
February 2020:- 11501 (Launch vehicle/Mosiac version of livery), 19440, 19645.
March 2020:- 11502, 19670, 19680, 19683, 37315.
June 2020:- 19646
It is understood that 19672 from Walkergate depot is currently under repaint

Wonder if any of the ALX300's will see the new livery

When is stagecoach North East going to start to repaint there buses.

They already have,read AIG20's post, 19672 is currently over in Sunderland for repaint

19672 Seen in pic looks like 27727 is next

Thanks for info mate

I wonder if 27727 and 27731, which are the only remaining with "E's" branding, will be painted into the old style livery or new livery? 27729 also needs a partial repaint as it has some minor bodywork damage next to one of the fleet numbers.

I wonder what the plan is for the remaining Gas Buses that still need repainting to remove the "It's a Gas" branding?

I'd be very surprised if anything else sees good old Beachball now

As posted on 'Stagecoach uk enthusiasts' Facebook Group by Lee Armstrong, MAN E300 24108 is en-route to Wheatsheaf for repaint - the first full-size single in the region to be repainted into the New Livery.

27727/39 are being repainted with 27 nearly done

Any of Stockton ones done yet.

No and probably won’t be for a while

A person by the name of Dyllan has said that 18185 the ALX400 is at Hartlepool, I highly doubt this so could anyone please confirm. Many thanks.

I assume this has come from Bustimes which lists 18185 as part of the Hartlepool fleet. I assume someone has mistakenly pressed Hartlepool on the operator list which is the next option down from 'Hants & Surrey' which is who it belongs to - being based at Guildford. So no, I'm 99.9% certain it's not.

Looks quite smart, especially with those wheel trims

ADL E300 27731 now appears to be in the paint shop (if its exact location on bus times is correct). If so then the "get there with "E's" branding will now be a thing of the past.

Are Stagecoach going to repaint all of 27726-40 again into the new livery in the next few weeks? If so then maybe there is something else planned for these vehicles? As 27739 had already been debranded and repainted some point in 2018.

By the looks of it these days they're just mixing all the E300s on all the routes now, whether they're gas or the old E branded ones, doesn't seem to matter anymore.

There has always been a mixture of vehicles on the E's since 27723-25 were transferred elsewhere when they stopped using Park Lane Interchange.

The E's during the week is now a mixture of mainly MAN E200s and ADL E300s, with the possibility of an ADL E200 and a Gas Bus; and a mixture of ADL E300s and Gas Buses on a Sunday.

Sometimes i just think Stagecoach hoy anything on the routes, even before the crisis started it happened, they're still using the darts, why not put 2 more buses in service to replace them?

I assume 27728, 28040, 39673, 37974 and 39718 have mechanical issues as they still haven't re-entered yet. 35189 and 36976 have also been off road for over a week.

They could have loaned some MAN E200s from South Shields as 39702, 39705-08, 21 haven't yet re-entered service.

I wonder how long 28031 will be away for and if it will be repaired?
