Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire was able to move back into Willowholme depot in Carlisle last Friday evening. The depot had been flooded in the storms that hit Cumbria just over a week ago. However, only parking for buses is available as the maintenance facilities at the depot are still out of use. We understand that the three Optare Solos due at Carlisle on loan from Stagecoach Manchester were due to arrive yesterday.
Some of the vehicles which moved on loan to Stagecoach East Scotland for Forth Road Bridge Closure Contingency work have been returned to their respective operating companies. Scania/Enviro 400 15446 is reported back in service at Northampton with Stagecoach Midlands, whilst Trident/Enviro 400 is back with Stagecoach North East.
