Buses in Hartlepool | A Mix of Old & New! | March 2025 |

Welcome to this latest bus video, where we take a deep dive into the variety of buses operating in Hartlepool as of March 2025! I hope you enjoy this footage, and if this video performs well, I'll be covering more locations like Middlesbrough, Newcastle, and beyond over the coming months. This video features a fantastic mix of different bus types, spanning multiple generations. Some of the highlights include: 🚍 Classic Dennis Darts – We spot two of these aging workhorses, 34605 and 34611, still in service despite being over 20 years old! 🚍 New Stagecoach "Midnight Blue" Livery – The fresh new look replacing the "Google Chrome" local livery is starting to appear across the fleet. Every Stagecoach bus will eventually be repainted into this smart and modern design. 🚍 Hartlepool Corporation Heritage Bus – We catch 37311 in action, a reminder of the town's rich bus history. 🚍 Yutong E12 Electric Buses – Two of the latest electric arrivals, 73089 and 73090, are seen operating in Hartlepool. These are part of a huge order of 40-60 Yutong E12s based at Stockton Depot, ensuring a smooth transition to an electric fleet on the 36 route. This comes as the Enviro 200MMCs are withdrawn and transferred to Slatyford Depot in Newcastle to replace the 2014/15 Enviro 300s. 🚍 ALX300 22341 Running 53 Minutes Late! – A dramatic moment as we spot this bus struggling to keep up with its schedule on its first 36 of the day. There's plenty to see in this video, from classic older models to the latest electric arrivals, as Hartlepool's bus scene continues to evolve.
