December 1st 2019: Fleet Ramblings

Stagecoach North East
The second new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 516 to arrive here carries registration mark WR69ORS.
 
Stagecoach East Midlands
Another special-liveried Scania/Enviro 400 has succumbed to corporate livery following the repainting of 15651 out of its ‘Lincolnshire Flag’ livery. 
The recent repaint of Trident 18040 has seen the vehicle lose its ‘Betty the Bawtry Belle’ branding.
 
Stagecoach East
No sign yet of Enviro 200 36011 taking up its role as a training bus here but 36310 has been reported on training duties at Cambridge.
We understand that the arrival of two electric buses here for extended trials is imminent. They will be based in Cambridge. Details of the plans for these vehicles have yet to be confirmed but we believe they will be of the ADL Enviro 400 City/BYD type that Stagecoach are also due to add to the Stagecoach Manchester fleet. More details when we receive confirmation of the vehicle type and intended operational use.
 
Delaine Buses
The DVLA is reporting that Volvo B7RLE/Wright Eclipse Urban 151 has been delicenced and reported as SORNed. We understand that it has been withdrawn from service and is being retained as a source of spares.
