January 3rd 2020: Fleet Ramblings3/1/2020
Stagecoach East Midlands
The transfer of Dart SLF 34426 to Scunthorpe is a replacement for 34458 which has been withdrawn and is being used for component recovery prior to disposal. Back in service at Skegness after repair is Dart SLF 35132. Volvo B7RLE 21248, which had been in the Reserve Fleet at Grimsby is being transferred to Scunthorpe, whilst Volvo B7TL 16916 is out of service at Scunthorpe for long term repairs and delicenced Arrivals in this fleet are Enviro 400s 19194/96 and 19210 from Stagecoach North East. The company records them as being prepared for service and for Skegness. Could these vehicles be replacements for the non-standard Volvo B7TLs in this fleet? Further Enviro 400s from the Stagecoach North East are expected here. New Enviro 400MMC 11278 at Mansfield is still devoid of fleet names but is regularly being used on the Pronto service. We believe that 11274-77, which we understand are in base Pronto colours and stored along with 11279 and 11280 which are in corporate livery and currently on loan to Stagecoach East at Bedford are all due to be part of the Mansfield allocation.
Stagecoach Manchester
Trident 18326, which is at Stockport, is understood to be due for transfer to Wigan.
