Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - April 2016

RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - April 2016
Darts are also starting to appear on the 6/7 quite a bit recently so its really going to be down to luck to catch them

The 1116 36 from Hartlepool can throw up something odd as that is one of the last boards to leave the depot so can get whatever is left.

Thanks is there chance of the man 300s appearing

35187 is the Dart that suffered fire damage.

There was a badly damaged Dart at the back of Slatyford Depot around 2 weeks ago. Though this might have been moved since then

I can't confirm if it's still in South Shields or not because I'm currently on holiday.
But I'm sure someone else can tell you Wink

Some prices will change on Sunday 1st May.

I wonder if the GNE fares are being frozen and they would have normally gone up by now.

Also seems some fares have gone down on the 1 - used to be £3.30 to Gateshead, now £2.80 and used to be £2.80 to Shields and it's now £2.10 so I wonder if they are going to lower the fares in certain areas?
RE: Stagecoach North East: Latest News & Discussion - April 2016
Well it's now only 50p cheaper than a Sunderland smart zone for a 7 day ticket. Not really good value if you don't use the E buses.

(18 Jun 2015, 4:03 pm)Kuyoyo wrote Wrong - 19199 moved to Manchester in early 2014 when Manchester's 38 started in competition with First. Initially all vehicles moved 'on loan' but given they are still there months after 10401-29 entered service, it might be a bit more permant. 10000 has been at Walkergate since March 2013.

Given that 19199 has now been repainted into 'Magic Bus' livery, one would suggest that it has indeed permanently transferred out of the region:

I'd have a guess that the decision to transfer it will be because of the new buses that are expected for Walkergate and would've been a bus that was transferred away if it had returned.
