I was wondering if anybody wanted to give predictions for the Stagecoach 2017-18 order?
I am assuming that 27 new Gold MMC buses will be delivered to Oxford for the S1 and S2 services there, as the buses from 2009 (94 and 1) were replaced last year so that I assume means the 2010 ones will be replaced this year?
Any other ideas post below. If anyone also finds any confirmed list released then also post that so we can check our ideas
I had a list somewhere, but i'll be damned if i know where!
Off the top of my head though:
Midlands are due 25 Gold Enviro200MMC's for route 48, displacing 36153-36174 to go elsewhere
Fenstanton are due 2 additional B8RLE/Eclipse 3's, whether these will be new front versions, i'm not sure, probably for the Busway, i'd imagine
Some B5LH/Enviro400MMCs are due for Arbroath, no idea what route for though

Interesting, bets on where these will go? I think they could be for the 7 as that pretty much fits the PVR (every 12 minutes).
Lots of that looks accurate, don't see the 27 Enviros for Oxford? Maybe this isn't finalised but looks like it could see lots of the buses mentioned.
