Are the drivers wearing Stagecoach uniforms? I ask as from when I have seen them they look to be wearing the First uniform. Also any news on when buses are going for repaints?
Stagecoach in Wigan ex-aberdeen 22353 were on 658 twice from wigan to leigh then again come back to wigan and going again to leigh.
Also Olympian were on 631 and 632.
Cheerio,

WN drivers are currently kitted out with Stagecoach bags, ties and hi-viz only. Otherwise they are wearing First uniform until their individual orders arrive (they are custom ordered)
Cheers for that, that makes sense to what I have seen when driving round wigan.
Have any of the ex Fife MAn 18.220s, that being 22400-7, been seen in service yet?
They won't enter service until 6th Jan when the ticket machines are swapped over.
Robert clark,
That right, they wont come service until like mbonwick say 6th jan for ticket machine. So it will be all full stagecoach alx300/Man 22400 to 7, 22301-8 and 22351,2,3,4,5,6, 7,8 and 22361,2 enter service on 6th january. I'm excited.

Not 22306/7 as I believe these are working for East Midlands at one of the Lincolnshire area depots.

How silly of me, thank for correction me(I'm must half sleep, lol) and sorry about that Robert clark... GKA, it is in Gainsbrough, right?
Also, one more question for you guys : why B9TL or B7R get repaint new stagecoach livery and when?
Thank you, guys
Martyn
Vehicles won't be able to go for paint until there are others spare to cover their absence. In the case of the B7RLEs, this will clearly be when the ALX300s enter service as some B10BLEs can be kept in service for a few weeks to cover the shortage.
The B9TLs are a slightly less clear case, especially as at least 1 Olympian has been withdrawn. I would suggest they will start going for paint when Tridents are available from Manchester due to the E400Hs entering service.
