Thanks Kuyoyo. This means that I am guaranteed not to only just miss them. My Middlesbrough dates are probably July 13/14th or August 24/25th.
When I go to southern Ireland in 2014 or 2015, I plan to ride Jet 2 between Newcastle and Cork. I may well stay a couple of days in Newcastle for these Stagecoach Hybrids (and GNE route 21 Hybrids too).

Repainted 22671 on its first full day back in service - internally it has also recieved a full retrim including the re-padding of the seats, the repainting of the poles and the trimming of the driver's seat in e-leather, the first Teesside vehicle such treated (as I understand it, South Shields have been treating their fleet to that, so with 22671 being at South Shields for the work it seems they did the seat).
MAN Enviro300 24112 has out on the 52/58 today, indeed it remains out on the 52 tonight. Sister 24114 worked one of the two normally Olympian turns on the 58 this morning to allow 16832 to cover a 61 to Elton Park followed by a number of 59s due to the weather.
Due to problems on the A66 in Middlesbrough this morning, 16837 and 22659 were used to operated duplicate journeys on the 36 - 22659 operating a Park End - Middlesbrough trip before operating a Middlesbrough - Stockton one.
MetroCentre-branded Enviro300 27510 was on the X47 today. MAN Enviro200 39703 was on the X34(!)
