Stagecoach East Midlands - Timetables, Services, & Wider Operations

I have a feeling we've got two more MAN casualties, as 22614 and 22800 have both been out of use since February. I did see a picture of 22614 with its front panels missing (not that it reveals much sure).

27182 is also out of service since my birthday (18th Feb) having only done a few hours of work that day so I'm guessing repair (although it is in Beachball so I wonder if the guys at Foster Street will finally update the paintwork, now seems a good time if its out of service)

Whats going on with 26259 ( YW19VRG)? Could it be repairing? Or getting a repaint?

Thankyou!

A slightly rubbish pic below showing 12029 in the workshop of Grimsby garage (taken from the public pavement).
Interestingly next to it is 19017, seemingly still intact... will it run again?

19017 lives still, it's out on 3/4s today

Unfortunately my camera blurred it slightly, but here it is leaving Cleethorpes Pier at sunrise this morning

Tip: at sunrise and sunset and during the stage in-between, don't try getting photos of buses if they're in motion, it barely ever comes out good (if you insist on photos, wait till its stopped)

I didn't have much option, I was on my way to work and it was there!

I was in Mansfield this lunchtime and took the opportunity to view progress on the depot rebuild (nothing to see !!). However parked at the back of the entrance yard, rear to the road, was a sad looking DD. It looked to be in interconnect livery, but Mansfield has just 19209 in that colour scheme and that was on schools this morning and has gone out again this teatime on 11 service. All Prontos are out so not my misviewing, so what was it? The point is that it appeared engineless and rather sooty around the open engine compartment as if it had experienced a fire in that area. I could not stop and examine further but does anyone have any ideas?

Could be 19194 as its the only IC Tridentviro to be out of service, since 26th February to be specific

I think it is 15618 which I have heard is at Mansfield as scrap

Thanks for that. Strange it should be dumped in Mansfield though! Unless…it really is 19209 and its ID is on another bus!

Yeah, it’s been there for a couple of months.

19007 is being donated to charity as per Steven Knight/Trident the Bear

 

[RareApe]

Bustimes.org is saying that Lincoln 10747 is currently at Mansfield depot.

[Pyewipecarshed]

Turns out 19007 cant be removed because trident is reliable, someone else made a new request so lets see how that one goes

That was me who made a new request, but got the same answer despite me also quoting the MOT which expired back in October (29th to be exact), and it being an early E400, and also its not in the 2026 Stagecoach Bus Handbook which says in the info page that its compiled with support from Stagecoach management...

I hate bustimes "helpers" sometimes (they're just too strict for no reason sometimes) and decline even the most sensible edits for ego.

But you can't say we didn't try.

[Patsbuses160]

Thank you!

No probs!

 

[Zenneth101]

Update: Bustimes seem to now have locked editing for 19007 so even if you have got evidence it looks like you won't be able to get it off the page

Very interesting things are happening in Mansfield today: 4 new MMCs seen at the side of the depot and a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter City 45 (Nottsbus On Demand livery) getting stripped at the back of the depot. Regarding the 4 MMCs, this is what I saw:

• "Eleven" themed MMC (Unknown reg, Maybe SN67 XAD)
• "Stagecoach, we've got you" (YX73 OXP)
• "Stagecoach, we've got you" (Unknown reg)
• "Stagecoach, we've got you" (SN66 VXR)

Is there a special event occuring soon or a service uplift due to you know? Could be influx of newer deckers to mitigate the fact electrics won't be in service as early as hoped? Interesting either way
