Oldest vehicle with Stagecoach North East now in service is 22026 (the last NK03 plater ALX300 in service)
17717 looks amazing. Makes me frustrated that I was unable to get ever get one of those within just one bus ride away.
17701-17730 started out in Manchester as 1601-1630, and while we know them as MK02s and ML02s, the first few were supposed to be MF51s. Some (I’m not sure if all) carried a special purple and gold variation of the Beachball livery for the Queen’s jubilee. Additionally, they were the first Stagecoach ALX400s outside London to receive the full Beachball spec, excluding 17629, which was refurbished following an arson attack in 2001. Like you said, they weren’t in Manchester very long, they’d all moved to either Hull or Devon, probably replaced by the huge order of Enviro400s Manchester received during the second half of the 2000s.
Did you know that ML02 RWO is in Exeter?
@@FiremanSamBoy2008 It was withdrawn last summer.
@@leicestertravels4705 Yeah, really sad to be honest.
I hope that Exeter will be getting new buses this year as I feel like we need some, our newest buses are from 2018 and I feel like we need more.
I always enjoy your videos, but this was particularly excellent. It's amazing how many older vehicles Stagecoach have. I live in Grimsby where the newest vehicles are 14-plate E200s... every day is a classic running day 🤣 Nice work 👍
I live in Exeter Devon and the newest Stagecoach buses here are the 68 plate E200 MMC's.
If you want old short wheel base enviro 200s come to Newport, south Wales as we have quite a few left and they are not leaving the Newport bus fleet any time soon.
18:03 17701 (ML02 RWO) was with Stagecoach South West and was our oldest bus in service however it was withdrawn in August/September last year due to its old age and Enviro400 Scania 15782 (WA61 KLE) becoming an Open Top because of an accident with a bridge therefore replacing 17701
Where did you get that info from?
There is some ex- GNE citaros with GNW now.
36071 and 17717 still going 1st August ! I was lucky enough to bash 17717 last week around Lincoln and it does sound very very nice and goes very well !
There is a fleet of 3 ex Dublin B7tl Alx400s with stagecoach bluebird up in Aberdeen. ESK934 (X122HKY) may possibly be the oldest closed top buses left in the whole of stagecoach UK !
Bedford has the same bus type mini based E200's that will also be going this year respectively 36301/02/06-08/21-23 also the oldest single decker with the whole Stagecoach is 22026 with North East being a 53 plate. Also New MMC fleet numbers for Mansfield are 11762-69 also further news is that Hull are due to receive 10401-15 from Manchester and 19205/19211/19379-89 are due to move to Stagecoach East Midlands to replace older Tridents and Plaxtons as well
Plenty still in stagecoach Midlands kettering and across stagecoach east
36071 is still in service!
17701 ML02 RWO is now in preservation
Yo dude I saw you again earlier I was walking to Sheffield interchange stand c5 to jump on ex Lothian enviro 400 on the x54 service
Saw you while walking down the hill
36080 - EU08 FHC and 36079 - SF07 VOB with Stagecoach West bristol has the same interior as 36071 exactly the same
As of the release of this video, 36071 is still in service
U should see stagecoach Dunfermline they have quite a few ALX400s left in service and some really E400s Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes and Leven probably have the oldest buses left in service as they still have solos in use arberhill depot still hanging on to an old Olympian which is parked in their depot bus doesn’t run Rennie’s have some very old tridents and E400s mostly used for school work probably oldest buses in fife might be the solos Moffat and Williamson use they have barely any buses that from 2010 or later
Is 32653 au05 muv the oldest first bus based in great yarmouth
Probably round that way, but I know there’s still some 54 plate Geminis operating in Huddersfield and Halifax.
