That was a typo, 10749-10759 are for Cheltenham, not Chester

Oh right. Chester have just got some new E200MMCs and Liverpool have some newish E400MMCs so didn't think that was true but thanks for the correction @Alex

We'll all find out as and when new vehicle orders are announced.

They've put in a bid for 25 Gold Spec single deckers for the 48, however I must stress that this is not solid confirmation that it will be happening, it has to go through whatever the processes are that the company has in place. It'll only be when the new order is announced that we'll find out if anything is on there. On that note, Nuneaton's union rep did attend a showcase of the new style SC Gold uniform which he showed me the photos of (I certainly like the looks of it), so they must be confident in the bid being accepted - again, this is no guarantee.

Stagecoach will announce the 2017/18 orders by the end of March at the latest,and probably much earlier than that.
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

How do you know they have asked for 25 gold spec single deckers?

Suspect there'll be gold MMCs on the X4 by 2018.  X7 just might go gold too.  Northampton route One Man/E200s are being replaced this year by MMCs???????????

Excited to hear 48 might be going gold.



Just re-done my website.  Check it out to see all my photos.  Updated almost every day!

It was passed on to me by Nuneaton Garage's union rep

Indeed so, that's why I had to make sure to stress in my original post that it's only a bid and no solid gold cert, otherwise there'd probably be people running around saying it's gospel and driving the management crazy  ::)
We shall all find out what is actually going down in due course! :P
