20960 was the bus involved in the accident on the 104. Got replaced a Olympian for a return run to Carlisle. 20960 towed back to the depot.

Can confirm 33162 was on the 685/69/66/38/75 duty today. 20942 was on Annan but broke down and 20965 replaced it.

33076 & 34214 were station spares. 47022 wasnt Staff Shuttle, just happend to be in bus station when you saw it. 47018 on the pit again today with Stagecoach Barrow on the front.

The 30/31 22608 stayed on the 300s all day. 24121 and another 79/179 in depot hence why 20959 & 24122 were used.

16393 was used by Carlisle United tonight to parade around the City.

The Stagecoach Merseyside Van has been here since Monday and is doing maintenace work.

Have uploaded photos!

Forgot to note that 16393 has had Stagecoach vinyls added, especially for tonight. It will be getting changes though as one of the "beech balls" is upside down! 16329 should be getting done soon as well.

Yeah, 20960 isnt having much luck is it! Could have been an Enviro if they hadnt took it off an hour earlier. That obviously isnt important though, the driver being ok is much more important.

Do what I do then, stop noticing what the allocations are (unless it's unusual), and start thinking about possible fleet changes all the time!

I read the fleet card every month aswell, but everyone knows them time I scan it!

Lol what I tend to do is take guesses at movements (99% of the time I'm wrong) and this sometimes sparks a debate. I used to post allocations, like everything I saw during my day but people who live in Cumbria don't want to know what's going on down here!!!

I tend to just post very rare allocations and news that I've heard from some place or another!

Due to Thread complications on here, I have made 2 separate threads on the Merseyside dart forum, one thread called "Stagecoach Merseyside Allocations" (Because for people from Merseyside on that forum) And one for us (Stagecoach North West Allocations.)

47062 came down to replace 20910 on the 1600 51.
22598 went back onto 302, replacing a late Scania in Workington. The Scania ran out towards Carlisle not in service with through passengers on, for them to catch up to 22598.
Some 30 and 31's have been struggling on time too, being up to 15 minutes late.

22597's LED's are working again.

Aye 47024 has the vibrating noise too!

47721 and 47722 done Buttermere's.
16393 Seatoller.

Also, do Barrow still have any B10M's? I had a look on Mal's fleetlist and I couldn't find any Barrow B10M's. I take it the 709D's have been withdrawn.

No B10M's at Barrow anymore, just Olympians (1 Leyland, 7 Volvo), Tridents (ALX400 ones for 6/6A/X6, and East Lancs ones for X35) and Solo's! They've got 2 709D's used for staff shuttle buses (LL's old 40028 and 40327)

Ohh Aye, how could I forget that?! I think 40327 is N327 XRP isn't it?

I'm in Barrow tommorow, so I thought i'd just ask if any 709D's are there.

What Leyland is it? Is it from the F---FAO batch?

Leyland at Barrow is 14266, J266 XHH.

I seem to remember 3 709Ds as ancilliaries at Barrow - 40435 as well IIRC.

14193 has at last joined the likes of 14195 etc at Barnsley after being collected by the very smart Wigley Wrecker at around 0830 this morning from Morecambe depot. All the withdrawn stock is now in the top right hand corner of the yard, they are certainly creating space for the open day and the arrival in May/June of the new single deckers, which will likely see these spaces filled with current members of the fleet.
As a footnote at the beginning of the month, the 4 B10Bs at Morecambe had their tax renewed, keep forgetting to check whether its for 6 months or a year!

I would hope only 6 months!
If Morecambe are keeping 3 MANs on paper that sees off 20133 (brite tech blind, oddity) and the 2 B10Bs (21003/4, non-standard).

21005/7 are in reserve on paper.

You need to remove the first http:// 07andrew

I see your point Jonesy; easier for OAPs to get on a B10B than a B10M!
