Stagecoach Devon
RE: Stagecoach Devon
47085 is majorly broken apparently. As repairs will come out of Exeter's budget, they will be keeping it.

RE: Stagecoach Devon
My personal opinion is that Stagecoach will likely make more of a success of Plymouth that First could like Chester/Wirral, Wigan and North Devon......First seem to have struggled with Plymouth for some time now and must have wanted rid of it

Because Stagecoach, always appear to away with everything.

When other operators fail to operate buses to the registered timetables, they get their operators licence revoke, yet when Stagecoach fails to operate buses to the registered timetable, nothing ever gets done.

RE: Stagecoach Devon
Stagecoach have planned the Plymouth takeover well to know what vehicles to transfer there.

I wonder whether, like Barnstaple's Scania-Enviro400s, it will lead to some new buses a few months later?

Stagecoach only operate four types of buses:- Optare Solo, Enviro 200, Enviro 300, and Enviro 400, so can't see any surprises really, unless they getting some thing like StreetDecks.

Would that be 'new vehicles' from the current 2015-2016 order or 'new vehicles' as an 'add on' order?

Hoping & praying that whatever they are they don't have Wright bodywork!
