Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire
RE: Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire
The latest new Solo to arrive at Carlisle is YJ15EAG (a new series of registrations from the previous deliveries) and has colour flashes similar to the Enviro200s on service 76 but is not yet lettered up.

I make that 12 of the 25 Euro5 Solos to have arrived, the others being YJ15AEB/AEC/AED/AEO/AEP/AET/AEU/AEV/AEW/AEX/AEZ. Apart from some having the route flashes, none of them are lettered up and are without fleet numbers. As none are yet in service they are taking up a large chunk of the garage so much so that the preserved Olympian has been evicted into the open!

Anyone have a full list of fleet and regn numbers? (e.g. MB?)

Thanks Michael, I had been trying to figure out the possible order of regn numbers to fleet numbers, now I can see there is no order!

Enviro200s are for cascade out of the region, with some darts going to Morecambe as well.
I do wonder how long it'll be before things change again with the new MD...

Are you able to advise who is the new MD, where from, date of change, old MD and to where please. Don't recall having seen this change in the local paper.

Nigel Winter is going to Stagecoach South Wales as John Gould is retiring at the end of August. His replacement has not yet been appointed.

When John Gould left here for South Wales, Carlisle City Services were mainly worked by 49-seaters - when Nigel goes they will be mainly Solos - how times change...

Two more Solos are YJ15 AEE/AEF which could possibly be 47954/47955.

Reserve 22149 has gone to West Cumbria and their 18330 has been in the dead lane at Carlisle all week.

Can confirm 47954/5 are YJ15 AEE/F.
47956 originally turned up with the wrong plate on - it is now correctly registered YJ15 AEG.

Back after a week's holiday and the latest Solos are YJ15 ACX/ACY/ACZ/ADO/ADU, fleetnumbers unknown. None of the new Solos are yet in service. Accident victim 34717 is now back in service looking very smart and the remains of 34589 which donated its front end are parked outside the garage.

"New" open-top 17490 entered service a week ago but broke down this morning so there was a two-hour break on service 78 (Keswick-Seatoller). With engineering back-up 30 miles away and buses fifteen or more years old and not exactly having had an easy life, it is not a good set-up. The other open-top 17489 is currently being painted. Kendal depot's 34616 has been prepared for repaint, presumably into green livery.

18330 is still laid up in Carlisle. I have just noticed that 20219 is no longer here, not sure what has happened to it.
