Noticed tonight quite late (well for normal workers) people working on the power box located just outside the depot boundary possible connection incoming?

Mansfield is the first depot in East Midlands to now get the new pride livery, 10971 (SN18 KTE) was in the old pride livery before now being repainted. This is weird for saying Mansfield is not repainting busses unless they got into crashes.

Not my picture.

Believe it was painted at Chesterfield apparently going to Barnsley pride on Saturday would expect hull to roll one out too as it's Hull pride on Saturday too.

As for the 22773 bit, whats that about, is it withdrawn now or? I saw it on the 20th and it looked fine
Also i heard 28641 was withdrawn but I dont know.

I know it did have engine/gearbox issues but could be awaiting new ones like 28611 did

I believe 10741 is meant to become Hull's pride bus but not heard anything to confirm

That does seem plausable but who knows could be numorous reasons

I have noticed that

Enviro400EVs
80294 SN26YCA
80296 SN26YCC
80298 SN26YCF
80299 SN26YCG
80300 SN26YCH
80301 SN26YCJ
80302 SN26YCK
80303 SN26YCL
80305 SN26YCO
80306 SN26YCP
80307 SN26YCR
80309 SN26YCT
80310 SN26YCU
80311 SN26YCV
80312 SN26YCW
Credit to buslists on the web more E400 EVs reregisted
80357 - YX26 KPU
80358 - YX26 KPV
80359 - YX26 KPY
80360 - YX26 KPZ
80361 - YX26 KRD
80362 - YX26 KRE
80363 - YX26 KRF
80364 - YX26 KRG
80365 - YX26 KRJ
80366 - YX26 KRK
80367 - YX26 KRN
80368 - YX26 JXD
80369 - YX26 JXE
I presume thats the full batch of steel blue E400's also now registered

Going off origional list above there was 3 missing ones from that list

80295 still on 75 plate currently
80297 - SN26 YCD
80304 - SN26 YCM
80308 - SN26 YCS
So only 80295 from the local liveried still to be reregistered


Unsure if E12s have asigned registrations yet but presume they will if Hull are still getting them?

Is 80295 still with North East? Believe it went up there to cover for 80000 which went for warranty work then to Oxfordshire

It is still up there yes, but it should come back as it’s part of Hulls 42 EVs

Yes, 80295 is still with North East at Stockton - and will remain so until Stockton can be given a second permeant electric decker (presumably another Yutong to match the rest of the fleet).

The 26 plate registrations for the E10s and both batches of Enviro400EVs have been known for a while. With 80295 not getting one due to being registered before the 26 plates started. E10s 63148/149/150 and Enviro400EVs 80297/304/308 got registered in March so were definitely staying as 26 plates. But as the rest of the E10s and local livery Enviro400EVs were unregistered they could have swapped to 76 plates if not registered before September but with the confirmation they will be registered on the 3rd August it means they will keep the 26 plates. The steel blue Enviro400EVs registrations are not currently due to be registered from 3rd August so will get assigned 76 plates if not registered before September. The only exception would be 80360 which got registered in June so will definitely keep its 26 plate.

Why can they register the buses at a later reg when really they are 75 plates, shouldn’t they show their true age

Once a registration period ends they have to go to the next registration year so as they didn’t get registered before the 1st March 2026 they forfeited the 75 plates and were assigned 26 plates instead. Then if they don’t get registered before 1st September 2026 they forfeit the 26 plate and get assigned 76 plates. It isn’t possible to register them on the old plates once the period closes.

Exciting stuff if that power box work is what it looks like! Been following the Hull electrics situation for a while now as someone keen to get into the industry eventually. Early August would be a great milestone. Would the EVs go straight into service once the grid connection is confirmed, or is there usually a testing/commissioning period before they hit the road?

I would anticipate at least some sort of public facing announcement about the EVs coming into service like that EV Hull thing

If you look at East Yorkshire they said in the next few weeks and despite it ofc actually being about a month later than a few weeks, they gave a timeframe but no idea if Stagecoach will do that or just buzz them into service unannounced like atm with the various routes the Yutongs do

19209 (NK57 DWV) is now back in Mansfield. Its running on my local routes so I'll check if anything has changed about it.

Edit: The bus engine has been swapped, nothing else about it has changed. It sounds more powerful now and its no longer having smoke come out.

Sorry if this has already been said, but I flicked through bustimes and noticed 19381 (NK58 AEV) is currently on the 59 in Skegness at time of writing, when its a Gainsborough bus if I ain't mistaken

Will be on loan to help with summer services. I think they have a number of loan buses at the moment.

In other news i just checking the steel blue Enviro400EV registrations again and they are also due to be registered from 3rd August meaning all the Yutong E10s and ADL Enviro400EVs will be 26 plates with the exception of 80295.

Could we potentially see another bus replace 80295 as its spending time in North East, or will it be like a 11627 situation where that and 11679 swapped if I recall?

Or will it be a case of they're gonna wait patiently for 80295?

The articles I've seen suggest that they will replace the E10s from next year, as that would equal the 55 as laid out in EV Hull article:

19 Enviro 400 EVs
20 Yutong U11s
16 Yutong E12s

While Mansfield are planned to get the electrics currently with Hull:

13 Enviro 400 EVs
10 Yutong E10s

And then whatever else those gremlins ordered

From what I have heard is that both batches of Enviro400EVs are all Hulls. Hull will also get some Yutong E12s and U11DDs and will use the E10s until Mansfield are ready for them. This can be seen with the funded by decals that have been applied as all the Enviro400EVs have funded by UK government as well as Hull City Council and East Riding Council logos unlike the E10s which only have funded by UK government.
