Not bad pics at all! The Wheels on the President, have they been done up or is that just lighting.Here we have a completed 18027 in the new scheme. https://www.flickr.com/photos/87749...7RtoK-2hkQENs-2h4ZUQo-2gWvD1d-2gTCT2p-2gdFRiw

They'll have been painted. It's usual practice with companies that have wheels painted as part of their liveries, Stagecoach included.
Thank you for the insight! This President is the first Wheel painted Vehicle after a renewed Livery I've ever seen.

I've seen a lot of pics of 18086 on the North east bus enthusiast page on Facebook. You get lots of latest pics around that region of Scotland including a lot from Fife. So I use it as a good way for keeping up with the latest repaints. Is their any news on when the first Stagecoach west Plaxton Panorama or the first Plaxton Panther (the low floor/high floor access coach). I forgot the name of it the ones that operate the X55, X56 etc.I just found a trident in the new livery with black window surrounds... it doesn’t look too bad, but I prefer coloured. Also fun fact this bus used to be here.

I'll admit, I didn't really expect to see an Alexander Dennis ALX400 in local livery and yet, East Scotland Transbus Trident 18086 (new to Stagecoach West in 2004) is seen leaving Glenrothes bus station on town circular 31 to Bankhead and Stenton (Jubilee Centre). 25/2/21.
According to the source I usually go by no, the oldest Volvo single decks with Stagecoach are Wright Eclipse bodied B7RLEs.
All gone by 2017 I believe.
Ah thank you, I'm looking out for 21204 too
I think that's a B8RLE (Volvo B8R, Low Entry).
Yes you are talking about the Plaxton Panther LE. As you say, it's on a Volvo B8RLE chassis, exactly the same chassis as the new Lothian Evoras except the Panthers have three axles
Thank you so much! With all the Chassis I get confused sometimes.
To be fair, it's quite easy to get confused with chassis types. It was much harder many years ago when pretty much any bodywork could be built on any chassis.
You're right

Stagecoach celebrates buses on Skye with tribute livery - routeone
Stagecoach has celebrated 50 years of buses on Skye by repainting a member of its fleet into the same scheme as the service had in 1970s.
Brilliant, well found and thanks for sharingImage here

Perhaps so, but I guess it's commendable that they've tried to recall their heritage, many wouldn't even try.
ADL at Falkirk certainly painted Manchester and Fife's latest deliveries
Thanks. It must have changed then as previous vehicles were plain white.
The plain white vehicles are for Dover P&R and will receive vinyls after delivery. Based on the current P&R livery, it's fair to assume they will remain white underneath.
Small correction, I think it's the Canterbury P&R
Yes it is, it's ran out of Dover depot
Yeah I agree, especially in these times.
