One for blind banditry page but couldn’t believe my eyes, 12137 on the 275 at present with 158(?!?) on the rear. Took two takes to make sure…. it’s in the newer “squished” font too so Stagecoach some reason added it to new blinds mid 2010s… Stagecoach only lost the 158 in 2019 and imagine the 158 was on all T blinds for logistical reasons like the 97. Makes sense. Looked very out of place on an ADL hybrid

4 Scanias were out on the 96 on Saturday. None so far today. Probably just because it’s a Sunday service today. I don’t think they are being withdrawn just yet as 15109 transferred to PD from WH last week. Probably all be gone in the next few weeks / months once more electric buses enter service and release E400s.

Are there any plans for the 86 E400Ds once they move on from the route? Oh that will probably be in 2044 😂

Oh that will probably be in 2044 😂 2 have gone City Sightseeing already. 10197 has moved from the 86 paper allocated to the 128’s. So that’s 3 already off the allocation. I can see most being spread across the group but mainly as open toppers.

I think it may have been 10126 (though technically that's meant to be for the 247)

Nearly all electric routes are running late. As for the buses they won’t have further use in London apart from replacing older buses like the Scanias.

19738 subbed at South Street for 19789 due to fault with gears with 19738.

Stagecoach Chief Executive Officer Claire Miles and her team visited ADL at Larbert yesterday for an update on their plans alongside a tour of the factory and Stagecoach's next-generation electric buses.
Bit of a hint about future purchases.

257 could be first route if they are prepared to wait.
