The Leyland Titan was origionally designed for and operated by London Transport, and since Stagecoach took over the East London and Selkent operations have been used all over the Stagecoach network, the Fleet numbers of these vehicles matches the individual vehicles registrations, and as such are not a complete block, Most have now been withdrawn, including most of the Open Toppers used in the Lake District, The remaining survivors are now used Mainly as School buses in Scotland and it is therefore unsual for them to be seen operating on Normal duties, but this still happens occasionally

the 13xxx series of Leyland Olympians, comprised of the remaining survivors of the former Greater Manchester PTE vehicles, No former GMPTE vehicles remain now, And the Former Hong Kong Tri-axles are also in the process of being withdrawn as Volvo Olympians are made available by New Deliveries, however a number of these can still be found on School services in Scotland & South Yorkshire mainly on School services, whilst a number also survive at Winchester for South West Trains Rail Replacement duties.

The DAF SB250 came into the fleet with the acquisition of Huntingdon & District, since then a pair were obtained with Bullocks of Cheadle, these Five vehicles were origionally numbered 15995-99 after the MCW Metrobus'es as they were not expected to remain in the fleet for long, However the Acquisition of Eastbourne Buses brought further DAF's, of both High and Low floor varieties into the fleet, this meant that if the same number series was used, then they would encrouch on the remaining Metrobus'es so a new number series was created.

The Standard Double Deck Chassis for many Years was the Leyland Olympian, until it was replaced in production by the Volvo of the same name, Most Feature Alexander RL and Northern Counties Bodywork, However Other styles of Bodywork have also been operated including Eastern Coach Works, East Lanc's, Optare and Leyland, although a large number of earlier examples of the type, including all ECW bodied examples, have been withdrawn a large number continue in service, mainly of Schools Contracts, but they can still be found in Normal service

The Volvo Olympian became the standard double deck chassis for many years when it repaced the origional Leyland chassis, when that went out of production and as such can be found over the entire Stagecoach network, the vast majority having Alexander RL wodywork but a large number exist with Northern Counties Palatine body's, whilst acquisitions from other Fleets have brough a bit of variety with East Lancs bodies

The Enviro 400 was the replacement for the ALX400 bodywork that is now out of production. And origionally was only available on Trident Chassis, it can now also be seen in the fleet on Chassis by Scania.

Stagecoach became one of the first operators of the ADL Enviro 400, when it recieved one of the Prototypes for service in London, this was a direct replacement for the Trident (17758) which was destroyed by a Bomb during the 7/7 terror attack's and was named "Spirit of London", However it was sold along with the rest of the London operation's to McQuarie Bank,

The few Optare Delta bodied examples that remain are now in use as Driver Trainers, including an former Blackpool example that was acquirred with Preston Bus

Over the years Stagecoach have operated various vehicles with chassis's built by Dennis, that have been bought in such small numbers that have not warrented a number series of their own have entered service over the years, these have included Falcons, Lances and more recently Enviro 300's.

the Enviro 300's are operarted with two very different style bodies, The Mk1 can be found on the earlier examples in Rugby, Dover, Newcastle & Winchester, whilst a trio were obtained when Huntingdon & District was acquired and a pair operate out of Worksop depot, whilst Manchester still operate the origional demonstrator on routes along side standard MAN's

The Mk2 with the later style bodywork, that is also found on the more recently delivered MAN's are operated in Portsmouth and 12 were recently delivered to replace older vehicles at newly accuirred Eastbourne Buses

Scania Single Vehicles have never been a normal type to operate with Stagecoach, however as other Operators have been acquired, a number of vehicles of various chassis types have enter the fleet, recently a batch of OmniLink's owned by Warickshire CC and operated in their livery have entered service at Nuneaton

While the School buses are operated out of Shafton Depot under contract to South Yorkshire PTE's

One of the first single deck chassis types to be purchased was the lightweight Volvo B6, this was a direct competitor to the Dennis Dart, but was never as popular, especially with Drivers and Fitters, and as such no B6's remain in service.

One vehicle that stands out within this series is Kendal's 30342 N416KPS, as this is Not a B6, But a B6BLE with Wright Crusader bodywork, However as this was a prototype vehicle it had no wheelchair/Buggy area nor Ramp and as such should it was numbered into the 30xxx series along side the Standard B6's, this vehicle has also now been withdrawn

The lightweight Volvo B6LE was one of the first low floor vehicles to be purchased by stagecoach and further examples have been been added to the fleet when their original operators were acquired, Most feature Alexander ALX200 Bodywork, but some carry East Lanc's Spryte bodies, whilst there is a solitary example (31032) with a Plaxton Pointer body

the Step entrance Dennis Dart was one of the first type of single deck chassis to be purchased by Stagecoach and a large number still survive. all though withdrawrals have taken there toll, Most of the vehicles actually delivered to Stagecoach carry either Alexander Dash or Plaxton Pointer Bodies, however a number have been operated with different styles of Bodywork, including Wright Handybus, Marshall and Northern Counties

Acquisition of other operators have brought a further number of this type into the fleet, including a number that had previously been withdrawn and disposed of by Stagecoach, these were numbered into the 329xx series and predictably had a very short second life with Stagecoach before withdrawral & disposal for a second time.

the mainstay of the Low floor fleet is the highly popular Dennis Dart, and as such there are now well over 1000 of these vehicles within the fleet, mainly with bodywork by Alexander and Plaxton, but there are also some small batches with Marshall and East Lancs Bodywork.

These vehicles are also operated in many various chassis lengths from the Short 8 metre Mini-Pointer to the 11 metre Super Pointer Dart. and can be found at just about every depot within the fleet

Although Stagecoach Bought a batch of Excels for use in the East Midland's, they have not been followed by any further orders, however further Excels have entered the fleet following acquisition of the operators that owned them, and now all the Excels have been concentrated at Chesterfield and Worksop Depots, including the Three acquired with Rapsons, however one of these was deemed unfit for service and has been withdrawn.

The 35101-35265 series came about due to there not being enough numbers left in the main numbering series for Darts for the remaining vehicles that were on order, so a new series was created.

the Enviro 200 is the latest development of the very successful Dennis Dart range and has recently started to make an appearance in the Fleet.

Most are of the standard 10.9 metre wheelbase however Worksop depot also operate two of the shorter 8 metre model on local service, all of the worksop allocation carry a green version of the fleet livery except for 36003/4 which are in "Robin Hood Airport Lynx" livery.

The Standard Midibus for Stagecoach for many years was the Merecedes-Benz O.709D "Breadvan", and indeed a large number are still operated with the company, However they are clearly in decline with Optare Solo's replacing them on most routes, also numbered within this series are a number of Merecedes O.711's which mainly came into the fleet as their origional operators were Acquired by Stagecoach

Over the years these vehicles have proved to be the main "Work Horse" of the fleet with both Coach & Bus variants being operated in large numbers including Double Deck versions, Most of the vehicles in service carry Plaxton bodies of various models whilst Jonckheere bodied examples are used mainly on the Megabus routes but a few are used on express work in the North West of England.
