I drove past a Stagecoach Enviro 400 in Guildford this morning about half a mile from the Dennis factory, (I think it had a reg starting M something and I thought I saw fleet number 10000 (which doesn't appear to exist) I was driving in the opposite direction and there were cars in front of me and the bus, so could not get a good look.
N.B Stagecoach have no routes in this part of Guildford and the local S/C company have no Enviro400s based in the area, it was almost certainly on a test drive from the factory.
Paintwork looked very good, was it a new vehicle or one down for warranty work?
Will have been Manchester's 10000 MX12 EOC, the Euro6 Enviro 400 trial vehicle, which I heard went back to ADL for some sort of work done to it. Nicholas might be able to confirm.
RE: Stagecoach Manchester - Nicholas - 13/11/2012 16:53
It is. I believe 10042 is covering it at Stockport.

Noticed today on a couple of buses a new style for the text on the destination display for the 250 to the Trafford Centre, which makes it clearer to read. Is this a test or will they start rolling it out onto other services too?

It looks like it's gradually being rolled out onto all services. All the 76's have it, even the ones that are not the new ones, as well as the new 12 Reg Euro 6 at Stockport, and I keep noticing odd buses, mainly Hyde Road based Enviro400's changing to the new text. It is a lot easier to read and hopefully it will eventually feature on all buses.

Don't see why Hyde Rd need a 06 reg Enviro400 now, probably explains why 19053 has been on Ashton routes
Plus a bonus is that I caught 17670 on the 236 this morning to Ashton, probably that could be filling in the absence of 19009
I think there's been a couple more movements now. 22132 MAN has gone to Sharston, meaning some more 84's have gone to MAN operation, and 19524 has moved from Stockport to Hyde Road. It was on the 74 tonight.

The fact that R623CVR and X699ADK haven't been numbered in this series presumably means they will either return to First Manchester or be transfered immediately to another Stagecoach subsiduary, possibly Glenvale ready for takeovers there.
Newer deckers will be presumably sourced, all those at Workington that where withdrawn except for two where too old for TfGM contract work. So presumably it awaits the availablity of 17648-17650, 17698-17699, 18281-18291, 18293 all of which will be removed from Magic's next spring/summer by ex London ALX400's that can be used on commercial work but not on TfGM tendered services.

7 Darts are due at Middleton later credit to GM Buses Yahoo Group
not sure why is it to replace buses to get repainted?
RE: Stagecoach Manchester - M60lad - 15/11/2012 11:23
Not sure how true this is but Darts due to go on loan to Bluebird (Chadderton) are the following:
33084, 33087, 33090, 33094, 34054, 34057, 34080
