Manchester are now getting 10504-9. Your roving North East reporter, bring you the latest news from Arriva North East, Stagcoach North East and Go North East.

Not sure when they will be delivered considering 10488-503 are being delivered before 10463-87 yet they were ordered months after those.

Nearly all the older Tridents cascaded into Plymouth are now up for disposal, they being 17002/5/6/10/11/38/51/289/90/4/5/7/9/329/30/7/670, plus local cascades 17055-8 from Torbay as a result of the delivery of 26034-8/10457-62/88-503, although the E400MMC's aren't seeing service on the 3 to Dartmouth as of yet which is in the hands of the '04' plate Tridents transferred from Torbay, I believe it's due to roadworks somewhere along the route. All the hired First vehicles should have returned to First by now. As for the old Tridents out of service, a couple are supposed to be heading up to Scotland and another couple are said to be off to Carlisle for spares, but might see some service.

It will be quite a modern progressive operation from Stagecoach in Plymouth now. By way of an interesting initiative, Stagecoach have launched an express route from Plymouth to Bristol trading as the South West Falcon. https://www.stagecoachbus.com/promos-and...K8,EG1QT,1 |

The launch for the new Scania's on the Hop12 took place yesterday morning on Paignton seafront. I was fortunate enough to be in the area at the time so went along. Took many pics but just these three on Flickr at the moment..... 15308 http://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/24413700348 The four different 'Hop' liveries, not actually possible for all four to meet in normal service so this is a rare occurence http://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/38233519456 The full line up of 22, in number order too, 15306 on the left and 15327 (last 5 in standard livery) on the right http://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/38233519026 HTH https://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/ |
