is the question: what stagecoach routes use hybrids? or are stagecoach the only bus company in the UK to use hybrid buses? if its the former I have no clue and if its the latter definitely not.

I think the OP wanted information on all Stagecoach-operated hybrid buses in the UK. I have therefore edited the thread title to make it clearer.

In London they run on route 15 (mainly). There are also hybrids in Newcastle and Oxford but no idea of routes.

It tends to be hybrids on the 219, not so much on the 216. They can turn up on the 10- routes from Manchester to Wythenshawe, the 99 on Sundays from Manchester to Sale, the 314 from Stockport to Offerton and the 369 from Stockport to Manchester Airport

We have hybrids here in Newcastle, they tend to work the main Stagecoach routes. But I have no idea which ones they are.

As above, they operate on the 39 and 40 principally but also on the 12 in the evenings and on Sundays. You'll usually find one or two hybrids on this route during the daytime too

Hybrid buses form the core stock on most of the high frequency routes on Stagecoach Oxford, Oxford Bus Company also runs them.

Aren't there some in Cambridge too?

To be fair, stagecoach have invested a lot in hybrids, so when I see the green ones it is no longer unusual.

Stagecoach's last 68 from Preston to Blackpool tends to be operated by hybrid buses, but in Preston bus livery.
