Could always come for Hull Fair, tho we might need it if these MANs keep blowing up
Don’t know for sure but could be on loan to help cover for the deckers that have gone to Silverstone for the weekend.At Hull, possibly as cover for 22772/99, 27201 has transferred in from Scunthorpe unannounced (I'll let you guys point out the hypocrisy seeing as we are about to send 2 E300s to Grimsby).
There is a chance that it could come before Hull Fair as Stagecoach are running extra services for Coldplay in August which likely will require extra buses to come in on loan.Could always come for Hull Fair, tho we might need it if these MANs keep blowing up
Looks like 27203 must have made some sort of issue in Scunthorpe so 26177 was put on for the return journey back to Hull on the 350. But due to it running late was replaced with 24204 on the 350 to keep the timetable to time and due to no longer needed for service today it was sent to the depot once it had arrived. It will probably likely be swapped tomorrow.Yeah could be, 26177 is in our depot for some reason after doing scunny routes, then coming here on 350 and going to our depot oddly
According to bustimes 26173 decided to reappear last night on the 350 with it being swapped on to replace 26174.26177 looks to be operating out of Hull depot, and possibly covering for the out-of-service 26173 (hence why MANs was doing the 350 before).
Strange that 21228 isn’t going to Stagecoach East as well.Trident the Bear on twitter reporting 21221/22/24 (AE09 GYR/S/U) are to return to Stagecoach East and Enviro 200 37205 (YY64 GVJ) is to return to Grimsby, along with East's Enviro 300's 27644/45 (GX10 HBZ/HCA)
Truly the end of the Volvo Era in Grimsby given the ex-First examples are to be replaced in the latter stages of the year?
26177 is here because Scunthorpe have 2720326177 is in service at Hull today, seen on the 80 at Tesco. Don't mind the motion blur lol
Also 26174 has been swapped for 26173, 26177 is here to replace 22800
Ngl, I don't believe him. 4 reasonsTrident the Bear on twitter reporting 21221/22/24 (AE09 GYR/S/U) are to return to Stagecoach East and Enviro 200 37205 (YY64 GVJ) is to return to Grimsby, along with East's Enviro 300's 27644/45 (GX10 HBZ/HCA)

Why would Grimsby not having any of the YY64 batch now mean that they can't transfer one in? They'd transfer any vehicle that is operationally convenient no matter what the depot's original allocation is. As for the rest, a lot of what he shares is often pre-planned future transfers that do take time to sort. Accuracy has generally been okay..Ngl, I don't believe him. 4 reasons
1. 21228 is missing, which is strange itself
2. Grimsby are notorius lately for being late or cancelling transfers (19239/40 to Hull for e.g. and 19072/5 to be withdrawn along with 21256)
3. Grimsby don't have 64 plates anymore of E200s, so thats not gonna happen.
4. Trident the Bear has been wrong a lot lately.
Plus Stagecoach are doing transfers randomly now, not announcing every change
I have heard that 21221 has left Grimsby now and 37205 has arrived or is on its way.Why would Grimsby not having any of the YY64 batch now mean that they can't transfer one in?

Quite possibly; according to Bustimes both were taken out of service today having worked part diagrams. 37205 c.0950 in the Bedford area and 21221 in the early afternoon in GrimsbyI have heard that 21221 has left Grimsby now and 37205 has arrived or is on its way.
19239 is currently out of use and has been for days, and seeing as the earliest transfers of B7s to East has started, I highly doubt 19239/40 is still coming, especially when 27203 has transferred to Scunthorpe instead... tho I don't know whats replacing it as Scunthorpe keep sending us and swapping buses like 26174, 26177, 27201 and now 27761When is 19239/40 coming over
Would have thought the 27644-5 transfers would happen on Sunday, as there is an Open Day at Grimsby depot on Saturday and I would highly doubt that they would do transfers when there is a eventCan confirm the arrival of 37205 (screenshot from the bustimes discord)
21221 was also pictured in Bedford on transfer last night. 27644/5 arriving this weekend, 21222/4 leaving this weekend

Does make sense to swap 27194 and 37205 tbh considering Lincoln has the classic E200s whereas Grimsby has E300s. Pointless taking 37205 up to Grimsby though, may aswell taken it to Lincoln and then sent 27194 up but oh well!We all knew the 66 plates would transfer to Lincoln slowly and eventually, I didn't think 37205 would go to Grimsby, so ig I was right lol. 27194 will need "Keeping Lincoln Moving" taken off tbh
Can't complain with those transfers tho, I do prefer Enviro 400s over Enviro 400MMCs.
i Really enjoyed the event too, they should make it a annual thing.A few images from the open day at Grimsby depot. I thought it was a cracking do, but I heard a few people complaining.
Let's hope they do similar events in the future.
Photos show Olympian 16314 "Hattie the Seasider", Enviro 400 19377 and Stagecoach - owned Bristol SC RFE 482 in the yard at Grimsby garage open day, and B7Tl 16962 "Lolly the Seasider" at Riverhead Exchange on the free shuttle bus. Oh, and a GCT cup cake!!
Thank You!Nice shot, wish I'd thought of that!!

Wonder when the other changes within SEM happen, cos Trident said "planned" transfer, so that probably won't be immediately, might be this week or next week who knows!
