Full colour illustrations throughout. The Stagecoach East Midlands area includes operations from depots in Hull, Grimsby, Scunthorpe, Mansfield, Gainsborough, Worksop, Skegness, Long Sutton and Lincoln. It is a diverse fleet which has been upgraded in the last year with the cascade of mid-life vehicles from other Stagecoach companies. More Enviro 400s are expected from Manchester in the coming months and details of these are also included. Produced with the support of the Lincolnshire & East Yorkshire Transport Review (LEYTR) the book details all vehicles in the fleet along with extensive information on liveries and branding as well as depot allocations. Several vehicles in the fleet have received the new Stagecoach livery and examples are included in the full colour illustrations. Stagecoach East Fleet Handbook 2020 (SKM052) 52 pages. Price £6.50. A6 size, laminated card cover. Full colour illustrations throughout. Stagecoach East operates from depots in Bedford, Fenstanton, Cambridge and Peterborough. Investment in 2019/20 has seen 12 tri-axle double decks and six Volvo saloons join the fleet. The company has faced challenges in returning services to normal post-COVID 'lockdown' as it works to ensure it buses and coaches are COVID-secure. This means that it may be some months before all required vehicle types are returned to service. As a result we took the decision to delay the publication of this Fleet Handbook until October 2020. The book will detail all vehicles in the fleet along with extensive information on liveries and branding as well as depot allocations. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The full range of currently available Steven Knight Media books is available from MDS Book Sales, 128 Pikes Lane, Glossop, Derbyshire, SK13 8EH (www.mdsbooks.co.uk).
