E300’s from Lincoln and HullMaybe but interested to see what Grimsby will get?
27s at Hull are staying as far as im awareE300’s from Lincoln and Hull
So from Lincoln only?27s at Hull are staying as far as im aware
No idea as far as im aware no lists for transfere have been made/confirmedSo from Lincoln only?
19633-35 have no NSA announcement unitsnobody seems to know what’s going on tbf. Whether anything will go anywhere for a week or so whilst they bed in. However we are very short of space in Foster St, so with the other electrics coming back from Scunthorpe something will have to give.
In terms of scrap, 22s and the early 19s will be gone I’d imagine. They’re the only ones not fitted with NSA’s which is probably the giveaway
I’d imagine they will get them in time19633-35 have no NSA announcement units
Stuff will leave just don’t know if it’ll be straight away. We’re managing at the moment and not dropping runs due to shortage but obviously no schools/colleges to contend withI heard nothing be leaving hull as there currently short on buses so who knows best just wait and see and stop presuming until after electrics enter service next week
Its a similar situation across the patch I think. The old stuff needs to go fast.I’d imagine they will get them in time

I heard that Lincoln was due a pride bus for Lincoln Pride, which is happening Saturday, August 15, 2026, so maybe it's only at the workshop so it can be updated into the new pride livery.On another note, 10819 delivered from Gillmoss to Worksop is now due to go to Lincoln.
Yeah if I were to guess I’d imagine 22s will go for scrap along with the early 19s.Its a similar situation across the patch I think. The old stuff needs to go fast.

Stands 1 to 4 be used for Electric DeckersI’m not sure if this is the right thread for this, but has anything been done to hull interchange yet to allow the e400ev to fit
Seems rather short notice this doesnt it, who will know when or what it is unless they happened to pass by Anlaby Road today? You'd think they'd announce it sooner somewhereI believe EV launch is this afternoon at MKM
Also EV deckers will only be on 3/5/12 daytime as they interwork other routes of a night apparently
I would expect the event is more of a media event. They have already had some more public events anyway with the clean air day event and the Priory Park electric event.Seems rather short notice this doesnt it, who will know when or what it is unless they happened to pass by Anlaby Road today?

Not exactly as daytime 5 cards go onto other routes but 3 cards stay onto latesSeems rather short notice this doesnt it, who will know when or what it is unless they happened to pass by Anlaby Road today? You'd think they'd announce it sooner somewhere
Anyway, I believe as of rn (till the boards change next month this is) that the 3/5 inter work at night already however the 12 doesn't, it usually does the random interworks.
And what happened to the 13 getting E400EVs then, the EV Hull article said they were gonna be 3, 5, 12 and 13.
Maybe not enough E400EVs to go around or not as profitable/important?
Private event I believe hence MKMI would expect the event is more of a media event. They have already had some more public events anyway with the clean air day event and the Priory Park electric event.
Apparently wont be on lates due to interworking?Private event for media and local dignitaries ect.
Work will be done to interchange but isn’t ready yet. Directors came last week and pretty much said sort a plan out, we need them on the road.
We will require banks man for reversing on 1&2 as it is blind to incoming vehicles.
So initially they are just to be used on 3,5,12 whilst they get stuff sorted
No idea but they were wanting banksman to do a 1400-2400 shift so must be outApparently wont be on lates due to interworking?
Or will E10s jusp on them cards that jump
They would still need them if they are using electrics or diesels. As the bays are the same either way so would need the help reversing due to being hard to see the traffic coming into interchange.No idea but they were wanting banksman to do a 1400-2400 shift so must be out
Yeah true. Tbf we’ve got that much going on I don’t even know what day of the week it is hahaThey would still need them if they are using electrics or diesels. As the bays are the same either way so would need the help reversing due to being hard to see the traffic coming into interchange.
I’m wondering whether they are still partially demolishing the site piece by piece, or if they have moved on to completely demolishing it all at once.This weeks N&P (northern TA) includes the application for a new Mansfield depot whilst Sutton Road is rebuilt. It’s for 87 vehicles and is to be at Concord Way at Bull Farm, just off the Chesterfield Road.
I would assume based on that data that it broke and is undergoing repair, could be a lengthy one knowing MMCs track recordI’m wondering whether they are still partially demolishing the site piece by piece, or if they have moved on to completely demolishing it all at once.
They are also requesting space for 87 vehicles. However, according to Bustimes.org, there are currently around 84 vehicles (excluding branded vehicles and 37001, as it has been scrapped). This makes me wonder if we will be receiving additional buses, especially since around 8 buses are likely to be scrapped within the next month or two.
If that happens, it seems like we may actually be gaining more buses than we are losing. Either way, it’s nice to see that they finally have a proper site.
On a side note, does anyone know what happened to 10469 (SN65 OBB)? It has been off the road for nearly a month now, and it didn’t complete all of its scheduled trips on the day it was last in service.
It was at Scunthorpe last weekI would assume based on that data that it broke and is undergoing repair, could be a lengthy one knowing MMCs track record
I believe 10882-8 were meant to initially come but plans do changePost 278 mentioned a possible transfer of 10882-88 from Birkenhead when the depot closes/
Well Rock Ferry (Birkenhead) is not closing as it retains non franchised route 1 (Liverpool-Chester) and some contracts in the Merseyside area. It is also an engineering base and has a paint shop. The depot is I think the last remaining Crosville Motor Services depot on Merseyside.
Iwould imagine that 10882-88 will remain at Rock Ferry after franchising as 10882 has recently received MCSLs cherised number plate VKB708 from an older transferred out bus. The plate originated on a ;iverpool Corporation bus.
I would assume then with those E400s potentially never running again, they would be driven to Scunthorpe today to swap them with the E400 EVs in storage there.I believe 10882-8 were meant to initially come but plans do change
== Doublepost prevention - post automatically merged: ==
I been informed
E400s 19045, 19146, 19175, 19211, 19230, 19233, 19234, 19240, 19243, 19307, 19308, 19377, 19379 and 19382 have ran there last services at Hull
Also the remaining MAN E300s 22639, 22757, 22759, 22774, 22776, 22778, 22796, 22797 and 22877 may also have ran there last services (24s that are being displaced by MMCs are due to come back to Hull apparently)
Also a comment by a depot staff member on a recent photo of 19377 on a Stagecoach Enthusiast facebook page says its done at Hull
But like anything plans change and with the new EVs from tommorow most or all of these could stay longer if any faults arise with EVs also cant see 19307/8 and 19377 going anywhere really as 2 should be needed for consortium anf 19377 id heritage liveried
I dont know for deffinate if they have gone or going just the information I have recieved
