(25 Feb 2020, 7:32 pm)Dans_bus_photos Am I right in assuming that 39723-39732 are to be swapped with 36960-36969 at Sunderland, and then presumably upgraded to Euro 6 ready for Newcastle's CAZ?

I'm not sure on numbers, but about 10 does seem to cover 32/32A, 35 and 71s. For LEZ, it would depend on further grants and funding - would of thought Nexus would of asked for Euro 6 by now... so could lead to something.

Not mentioned, 11502 arrived back from Inverness last Saturday and 22412 is on loan to Walkergate.

Sunderland has been downgraded quite a lot, and services such as the X24/34/Es are suffering with the old MANs making daily appearances...

It will be highly unlikely that Sunderland will be downgraded, there been looking to have the E services at Sunderland for long time since the Busways era

Somehow I don’t think SNE will downgrade Sunderland. Firstly, it’s their regional HQ; secondly, the depot is huge compared to SS. It makes sense for Sunderland to run the E’s and the x34 which could interwork with the x24. Returning the 30 and x20 makes sense though. The 30’s days must be numbered IMO.

I wouldn’t be to worried if Sunderland was getting cast offs. I image all the man e200s will be replaced over next couple of investment orders. That way it spreads the investment around rather than be focussed on one city. Let’s not forget Sunderland also acquired some decent vehicles from South Shields so works both ways

ADL E300 27738's front destination needs changing as it has had broken / dead pixels for years.

I must say, the new livery looks a lot better without the ridiculous mustard front bumper! Other divisions have vinyled the classic E400 bumpers in mustard, so I’m assuming that the North East have exercised some independence, here?
