Ok then, I find that just a bit weird especial since middle one has 15metre coaches No idea why there have to make that even clearer
Thanks for posting the correct list shown in the book rather than the copy and paste jobs posted elsewhere yesterday which are not correct.
I wouldn't assume BBP is 100% gospel truth either, they have in the past printed incorrect info - In fairness, some (Not all) have been down to changes of plan.
I haven't seen the latest book but they themselves 'Cut 'N Paste' info from old edition to new edition, mistakes included.
I don't expect them to be perfect given the volume of data and variations.
Better than the Notth East, zero!
If my maths is right, Kilmarnock are getting 26 E400 MMC's, Aberdeen getting a solitary E400 MMC and Dunfermline getting 6 E200 MMC's.
That works out 33 new buses for Scotland combined. Not really much is it?
I feel bad for the North-Eats, fancy missing out on fresh new stock.
So, we have 200MMCs coming over to Barnsley, a bit bland but okay. The Streetlights though, what routes are they gonna be deployed on? :-?
To be fair the North East has not done too badly in recent years. Good numbers of E200 MMC & E400 MMC delivered in the last 12 months.
First new stock in Newcastle since 2011. They were long overdue! Busways is the third most profitable subsidiary in the UK in cash terms. On a PVR to profit basis, probably the most profitable.

I thought Stagecoach refused to put in new stock because of the council stupid idea to nationalise the bus operations?
Talk about selective facts.... You talk about new stock for Newcastle but quote on the profit for Busways forgetting the 80 other new vehicles delivered to Shields and Sunderland :roll:
Also, should remember that there were a lot of new deckers between 2007-11 so that removed a lot of PSVAR issues. Arguably, it might be worth having some new fleet to Newcastle to cascade across the country though.
I think some or all of the coaches will be leather.
To posters in Carlisle I have no sympathy. They gave you brand new Solos and you moaned, now your getting the darts back and moaning again.
Can anyone clarify if the Deckers listed for Wigan are for Wigan or Winchester? hearing conflicting reports
Have Stagecoach specified e-leather seating in all of the 2017 orders (outside London) or are there still some new buses entering service with beach ball moquette?
