Stagecoach East Midlands - Timetables, Services, & Wider Operations

Anyone know what’s happening with 19107 & 19106? Thought they came to replace the Geminis? But seem to just stay at skegness now?

Knowing Skegness, they regret having Enviro 400Hs as their open toppers so they decided to steal these for a year while they DON'T figure their fleet out. Then again they have some E400Hs for the main fleet so whos to say.

AFAIK moving to Grimsby next year, Gemini's passed their MOT so have an extra year

Ah ok thanks

Ah ok, they most probably do regret having the 400Hs as they are awfully unreliable. 12030 Milly the Seasider hasn’t been out since January

The Enviro 400Hs have been a lot better this year, most of them have been out daily without no issues. 12030, Milly the Seasider was last out on 26th June when it suffered engine trouble on its way back from Mablethorpe on the 59. 12036 Sweetie the Seasider is the only other that’s not been out, again since the 26th June. 12052 Pierre the Seasider has even had a run out to Boston operating the B1 service to Bakkavor last week.

It is nice to see that the 2 inclosed Seasiders can operate different routes when they aren’t broken such as the 59,56 and some others. Be nice if they were to put an open topper on the 59at some point. But can never see that happening

Mansfield's 11277 now has working NSAs, nearly a year after it was legally required to, though rather irritatingly it says "Welcome aboard Pronto to Mansfield" after every single stop regardless on whether it's stopped or not

Thats what the bureaucrats who wrote the legislation require.

 

[ACBest]

Thats what the bureaucrats who wrote the legislation require.

They definitely don’t - the requirement is that it makes that announcement only if the vehicle stops and the doors open. Sounds like either a problem with the programming, or a problem with the door feeds.

 

[Thomas04]

Stagecoach seem to be putting Announcements and screens on all there busses now 2 E300s and the E200 in Grimsby have them now

36116 is now moving to Scunthorpe from Skegness rather than 37198 which is expected to receive Tiger livery/Branding

Slight curve ball, 36116 has just arrived in Grimsby! I saw it at around 12 just approaching the garage.

 

[ricoblade]

On a separate note, SCEM made some timetable changes to some Gainsborough services "from July 27th" but their Journey Planner (app and website) still has the old times in, the Timetables have been updated. I've sent a note to SCEM so hopefully this will be updated and future timetable changes will be reflected more promptly.

Will we keep it do you know?

I don't know tbh, possibly someone else on here might?

Ok, 37205 has now left Grimsby for Lincoln

Always a curve ball haha! Would think if 37205 has officially made it to Lincoln, 36116 stopped off here before going to Scunthorpe. 27194/96 may well be here now. Will keep an eye out on my travels later

27194 has arrived, swapped yesterday and was on the Grimsby circuit of the 53

Will 27194 stay in the keeping Lincoln moving? Maybe they should change it to Keeping Grimsby Moving?

Unlikely, the keeping Lincoln moving branding was on when they built Lincoln's new interchange and regenerated that area. 27194 clearly hasn't seen the paintbrush in many years!

Shame really, Grimsby & Cleethorpes could do with some special liverys

 

[Zenneth101]

11686 looks to be for repaint at Hull, along with (this one IS confirmed) 10039 at Lincoln, so 10039 looks unlikely to come for Coldplay. That begs the question, what buses WILL come, could we potentially see a return to Hull for 10746-48 for a few days? Considering the amount of passengers, its unlikely they'll use single deckers imo

27196 arrived yesterday, operating 9/10s yesterday and this morning

 

[Thomas04]

Any Fleet Changes for Grimsby in the coming weeks/ Couple of months

I went out of my usual perch of cleethorpes the other week to try find some E200s and other vehicles. And i decided to take a look at CT1 The sightseeing tour and i must say i was very surprised on how good it was

27795 FX12 BNA is tracking in Hull after repaint, possibly a Coldplay loan come early?
11194 is now also back out, I suspect 11686 (OWZ) or 11195 (VUR) to be the next repaintees.
22869 is reported withdrawn due to a oil leak and a turbo thing.

I think 10737 should be the next repaint in service as I have heard it is at foster street in we’ve got you livery with vinyls applied so would expect it to appear in the next day or two.

27795 is now back in Lincoln so would assume it was at Hull for repairs and repaint before going back

I think it was repainted at Lincoln but been in Hull for MOT.

In other news 10737 and 11686 have both returned to service today in We’ve Got You livery.

 

[Zenneth101]

11195 has aswell.

Tomorrow and Tuesday is going to be telling for what/if Hull get on loan.
I've seen there'll be 2 Coldplay routes (Yellow, and CPC1 I think or CCP1 something like that)

 

[RoadCar]

Does anyone know when Stagecoach stopped going to Louth with the 59 service?

I remember a service 51 from Grimsby to Mablethorpe pre covid.

 

[ChappersNUFC]

Grimsby’s 10911 at Hull on Coldplay duties

 

[jimbob185]

Grimsby’s 10911 at Hull on Coldplay duties

I think 10908-10 are also in Hull for Coldplay duties from Grimsby. 19243 has also appeared in Hull today from Grimsby on the 3

 

[Fox192]

Looks like 15178 also I think
