Interesting quote from there
'Phil Medlicott, Stagecoach North-East managing director, said the company was committed to further improvement, with £6m plans to introduce 38 new buses in Sunderland and five further vehicles in Stockton.

Make of that what you will.

Moving on to today, 16831/3 were on the 13, 16834/9 were on the 35, 16835 on the 52 and 16836 on the 11. 17026 started the day on 58s but was swapped onto the 52 after the second driver to do that working isn't yet type trained on them, while 17027 was allocated to the all night 11 working, which starts as a 34 at half 8. 17032 was again used on type training.

I'd say buses for the 37, someone said a while ago that the 37 brand was going to be stopped, you never know, could just be on about the alx400's!

Wouldn't be about the Tridents - considering there are 10 of them and they certainly aren't 'new' in the sense of 'new' (new to Stockton but not brand new).
