RE: GNE Bus Changes. - L469 YVK - 30 Oct 2014

I'm sorry to say this but I can defintely see a new order for the X1 to allow the older B9's to upgrade other services or allow PVR increase or accomodate recently enhanced PVR's.

You've said this on many occasions, and I think you've justified your reasons enough behind thinking this.

Whilst I actually agree with it being a decent idea, I honestly don't think you need to repeat it over and over again. I don't think it'll happen, as much as I would like it to...

Well I know that Dan but it would be a massive help if they did.

Prudhoe diversions, no doubt.


GNE Bus Changes. - cbma06 - 31 Oct 2014

I picked up the new timetables for service 8 and 78. The picture of the bus on the 8 timetable has the number 8 on the side and the 78 timetable has 78 on the side plus the route. To me Thepicture of the bus looks different unless I'm blind lol.

Still gutted i can't use the 8 to the Gall's on a morning from the Grindon Mill... only used it before it was faster... (at around 8am) 

However... i might try and catch it on the way back..... 


RE: GNE Bus Changes. - Andreos1 - 02 Nov 2014

The FPF welcome the new night time links that the 4 will bring, but hope the company will reassess the lack of a late bus, which would accommodate night time revellers coming from the Heworth/Newcastle direction.

The last X1, doesn't connect with the last 79a and means a 10.30 finish to night time activities, if in Newcastle.
Of course, it is possible to use the last X1 and organise a taxi to meet it at the Galleries or get a 21/n21 and jump in a taxi in Chester le Street to complete the journey.
To do that, means you need to be compos mentis - which is a lot to ask during the festive season.

*statement ends

Hopefully it's used, they may even increase it to half hourly.

Undecided, would be better if they connected, nothing worse when you have to go early to connect to a different service!

Maybe drop a line to nexus and suggest the 79a meets with the x1.


RE: GNE Bus Changes. - Andreos1 - 02 Nov 2014

I have thought about it in the past, but it would mean a total rejig of the 79/79a timetable (79a is an extension of the 79).

Due to the timings/route of the 79a - it comes at something like 2130, 2235 and 2340.

The X1 gets in to Houghton at 2145, 2215, 2245, 2315 and on a Saturday, 2345.

If the 4, which arrives into Houghton just after 11, was to head back out on a run (even as far as Fatfield), it could easily pick up passengers from the 2230 ex Eldon Square X1.
A full run of the 4 at 2308 from Heworth , would offer an alternative to the 56 and the Saturday only 2300 X1 ex Eldon Square. It would arrive in Houghton at 2345 before scooting off NIS.
