Or, have everything in that mango coloured long distance livery,

Actually, given the amount of public money that goes into these vehicles, it’s not a bad idea to have a national bus brand. It works really well for London with their all over red so why not nationally.

Also, this is only 29 vehicles. We're expecting 39 of the type

I appreciate this is only information you have been given. If anyone else has any insight, that would be appreciated!
I think, but this is purely conjecture, that Stagecoach Manchester were expecting 59 (80087-80145) but now are only receiving 35 (80087-80121). Numbers 80122-80145 seem to be remaining blank which leaves 80146-80155 clear, could this be the extra 10 for Chesterfield making 39 (80146-80184). I repeat that this is only my take on things. BLOTW has 80087-80121 with ADL body numbers Q401/1-35 with G401/36 upwards being for Metroline Manchester.

What about the batch of E400 electrics due for Gillmoss?

Not seen any mention of those (or indeed if they are to be E400EV's.....)
I heard Gillmoss are due a batch of Electric double deckers in Metro livery

But it seemed to have gone quiet, I suspected it be E400s

I read on another thread that there are 59 ordered for Manchester. Only 35 are being delivered now (for Oldham) with the other 24 due when electrification works are done (not sure which depot - possibly Queens Road)

I asked in East Scotland thread but no one seems to know, maybe people elsewhere in the empire will know

Stagecoach East Scotland is due the following:

* Where is the other 12 E400MMC coming from?
* When and where is the 16 E400 coming?
* Where and Where is the 19 E200MMC coming from?

Somewhere in the mix there should also be five (?) battery-electric single deckers for the Dover Fastrack service.
These have been confirmed locally as 10.8m Volvo BZLs, due next summer (anything longer won't fit around Whitfield). They are currently using four E200 MMC (37497-500).

I've got my copy of the 2025 Stagecoach Bus Handbook, and, I hope it's wrong about the Volvo order for Exeter. It states that the Exeter batch (Volvo BZL, 66101-120) will be 10.8m long, and seat 34. These will have to replace 41 seat Enviro 300s, and larger double deckers. I can't find anything about the order online. Has it been finalised yet?

I think buses ordered with ZEBRA2 money need to have an extra wheelchair spot, hence the reduced capacity

Point is, 10.8m is a bit short, especially with the extra wheelchair space. Unless a 12m won't fit under the low bridge at Tan Lane.

I see a lot of Stagecoach bus is cancelling services up and down country tomorrow due to Storm Daragh

Weirdly Stagecoach East Midlands is one of the only areas with no warning wonder if East Midlands is protected from it?

Maybe not any cancellations, but I could see the 250 and the 350 routes to Hull getting majorly diverted or curtailed if the storm causes a closure on the Humber Bridge.

As long as Humber Bridge remains open to high sided vehicles then 250, 255/6, 350 will continue to operate

Stagecoach will continue to participate in the £3 (from 1 January) bus cap scheme. Urban fares across the group will be lower than £3, albeit (short-hops aside) generally above £2.

Separate pages with local fare examples are also available for all non-franchised English OpCos except, for some reason, East.

East's routes in the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority will presumably be covered by the local extension of the £2 fare cap; they may be puzzling how cross border routes into the rest of the operation are impacted.

They usually use single deckers on the 250 and 350 anyway so even if the bridge is closed to high sided vehicles they can still run, not sure about the 255/6
