B10BLE 21142 was on the 13 today, 21150 on the 52/58 and 21104 on the 35 (no news on 21141).
Olympians 16834/8 were on the 52/58, 16831 on the 35, 16836 on the 13 and 16839 on 12/14/34.

21141 over the pits and 21144 off the road. Also over the pits was new addition at Stockton 22493
RE: Stagecoach North East - MIB - 28/10/2012 12:01
Is there any indication of when the olympians are likely to be withdrawn by Stagecoach NE and is it better to visit on a weekday than a Saturday to take a ride in them?

No indication (yet) when the Olympians will be withdrawn. For rides, better to visit on a Saturday or during School Holidays (Teesside schools are on holidays this week) when all Olympians out in service are out all day on those runs whereas on Schooldays usually only one stays out until the end of the working it's on (and in the case of 16837 on the 36 the other day, only appearred at 12-ish until 8).

So, presumably 22493's arrival will offically replaced 21104 from the allocation (though presumably that may stay in service until 24101 returns).

Think we'll see the 4 reserve MANs turn up to replace the BLEs in service

Thanks Kuyoyo for the info. Just out of interest when you say the olympians are out in service all day on a Saturday does football interfere with that when either Middlesbrough or Sunderland are at home? Would ollys get pulled off services to do park and ride instead as I notice Sunderland are at home next Saturday?

Only when Sunderland are at home. Though normally the 3 Olympians for the Park & Ride are allocated onto that wok at the beginning of the day so spend the morning in the depot. Stagecoach no longer do any work for Middlesbrough FC.

Thanks again so maybe better to visit when Sunderland are playing at home as an extra three buses to play with potentially. I think your last sentence answers what I was thinking as Middlesbrough play Sunderland this week in the cup and I had wondered if extras would be laid on!
