3 others may be joining 24135 to replace some of Hulls 22*** although this is unconfirmed but has come from a reliable source at the depot
28671, 73 and 75 now at Preston, 27272, 27886, 27288 and 27298 now at Gillmoss, 27271 also is now at Gillmoss if not already mentioned
It's worth noting that MAN 24159 passed an MOT this week.
The planned drivers strikes in Merseyside and Lancashire have been called off after the pay dispute was settled
Fairly recent transfer from Stockton, 27913 has been destroyed in a fire whilst parked at Gillmoss depot in the last few days...not aware any other buses were damaged as a result.
HTH
Not sure if its been reported but another recent transfer to Gillmoss is of Scania Enviro400 15715 which has come from Barnsley and was out in service on 82/86s yesterday with a well known enthusiast behind the wheel.
Recent transfer from Yorkshire, 28677, is in service at Gillmoss, as is the Enviro200 from Midlands, 36174......
Info from a staff memo that's been sent to me......Stagecoach Manchester & Stagecoach Merseyside are to be merged into one unit as Stagecoach Manchester & Merseyside (no mention of the Lancashire depots...perhaps that's when they join the Cumbria fleet)
Changes from 1 December 2025
Does that include Chester as well or will that depot be a stand alone unit?
