Change to service 6 timetable is the 23:15 journey from Bishop Auckland now departs at 23:30 owing to timetable changes on the Arriva operated 6 between Durham and Bishop Auckland in order to maintain connections between the two services.

The condition of Ex Go North East 0480.
I sampled the SB Travel 108 service from the Asda to the bus station, I was disgusted at how me and my friend were charged £2 all together for the very short journey when on Weardale 101 it's £0.50 for a adult single. When I asked the driver if he accepted contactless he said no, as such had to give cash. The driver did not give me a ticket, even though he had a ticket machine, as such im worried he pocketed the money.
The bus had various seating and looked like it was bought from a scarpyard, the driver was not dressed appropriately and his attitude was not a good example to those on the bus.
At the Morrison's car park a lady boarded and ended up standing, the bus was so busy, the driver then turned round and said "there's a seat there, it doesn't bite" and then drove away.
I noticed that the vehicle had no CCTV, as such no evidence if anything happened on-board, the bus had pretty poor branding and looked like the vehicle wasn't treated with care.
At the back it had a cream panel to go with the blue, it made the vehicle look ridicoulous.
All together I would never reccomend this company, goodness knows how Durham County Council gives them this contract!?!
