🎄 Welcome to Robins 2024 Christmas video! 🎄
As we end this year, we start off with a very important topic in the bus world. Tridents. With the Bee Network Tranche 3 kicking off, this has allowed many newer 2008/2009 Tridents from Manchester to cascade between the Stagecoach depots in the country, which will replace all ALX400s and majority of the older Enviro400s. This video is majorly themed on Enviro400s with ours at Barnsley going in January, 19032/33/35/104. We have all grown up with these reliable buses, and how odd would it be for them to no longer be around. Similarly, First followed the rules of removing all euro 3 Deckers and Singles from their fleet, such as the B7TL and older B7RLEs. Which is what Stagecoach are now doing with theirs.
Now, if you've been a long term Subscriber, you will know that I used to do the yearly 22649 video, aswell as if available, a video of the Christmas bus we have at Stagecoach Yorkshire. None of those were possible, so originally I had 2 Trident videos to post, and what a better way to have recieved the message a few weeks later about older Tridents being replaced! Perfect. Therefore i have brought the community together by adding your photos to the video to help us remember these buses. All over the years we have seen tributes, such as Volvo B10s, Dennis Darts, Olympians, but we haven't quite yet seen Tridents.
In order here are the people who have contributed to our christmas video this year.
Thanks to The Sheffield Bus Spotter
Thanks to DM Transport Videos
Thanks to DearingsBusPix, who gets a special mention this year for the most photos in the video! Brilliant.
Thanks to Anson Leung
Thanks to Kieran's Travels
Thanks to Thomas J Gale
Later on, after the tribute, is our 19033 SN56 AVZ, which is the only one of the Euro 3 Tridents at Barnsley to have kept its original engine and gearbox since transferring last year.
Here you get to see my usual exciting Euro 3 Trident action, which starts from 4:39. I hope you all enjoy the video as it is certainly one for the history books.
Stagecoach Manchesters 19001 MX06 LUO will be returning to service for a short period of time to commemorate the history of the vehicles and liveries. Therefore what is planned is an heritage event, such as a number of Enviro400s operating:
19001 - Stagecoach Stripes
19288 - Stagecoach Magic Bus Classic
And much more.
🎄 Thankyou guys and a very merry Christmas to you all! 🎄
