The latest News in the South and South East


Sorry that I haven't been writing posts recently it's just that I ran out of ideas I can now bring you the latest South and South East news.


Stagecoach South East:
Quite a few to note. The last 60 reg Enviro400s have now been branded for the "One" This was delayed because I didn't have any decent photos of one but I have now. Other notes to note is the most recent repaints. Some of the Tridents have had a repaint before transfer and also other repaints have been done on Enviro400 19019 (MX06 XAU) and Scania Enviro300 28608 (GN61 EVM). 28608 has been repainted with more white around the windows replacing the black and has gained a white bit inbetween the front lights like 28606 (GN61 EVK).

Away from the repaints Eastbournes and Hastings recently transferred Ex Breeze Scania Enviro400s have all entered service. Other transfers include more Magic Bus Tridents including one at Hastings with the original seat cushions. That is 17639 (W639 RND) which was transferred from Dover with Enviro400 19016 (MX06 XAR) going the other way and Similar 17627 (W627 RND) from Thanet. Also other transfers to Hastings were Super Pointer Dart 33176 and Solo 47174 both from Ashford and Folkestone.
