Yeah, there is at least one in Hartlepool still displaying the Pygalls 230, or at least it was still there in October.

If you think this is bad you should have seen Darlington (out of the town centre) prior to the big changes back in July 2008, there was loads of services which had either been withdrawn or changed routes, along the A167 between Darlington Northgate and Coatham Mundaville (last stop in Darlington Borough) they all still had the 75/76 on from when they still terminated in Newton Aycliffe which it stopped doing in autumn 2005? Wouldn't surprise me if this was the reason why they decided to put stickers on saying "All Services" which was strictly not true as the X61/X66 and later the OK1/X1 were limited stopping services. Also in the town centre they had service 213 on the flag which was renumbered to the 21 shortly after the big changes to services in Darlington and the 213 remained to be shown on this stop until they jumbled the stands around in October 2013!

Also when the Scarlet Band 16/16A, 17/18 and 20 were withdrawn they just put a small notice in a little yellow box saying they were going to be withdrawn. Also down North Road the yellow box said about the new revised 16 serving North Road from the start of January 2013 but the timetables weren't updated until the end of March when Arriva made some service changes.

Not too sure about the 230 still being up on the flag on Victoria Road, but the timetables outside the Historic Quay are still up advertising the 22 to Durham and the 36/36A to Park End and James Cook.

new new process. But the bus stop at Wharton street South Shields has new numbers displayed in a 4 column display rather than 3 columns and the numbers are in numerical order but counting downwards in each column. Ie column 1 is 1, 3 4, 5 column 2 is 8 , 18, and so on. Looks good but different.

Has anyone else seen this stop yet or another with the same 4 column layout. It was not an April fool joke as I think you may have thought given the date I posted it

Can you access Nexus's bus stop timetables on line? This would be very useful?

LeeCalder · 14 Apr 2015, 7:52 am,

If you know your bus stop number, just revise it where the numbers are here: http://liners.nexus.org.uk/18951.pdf

This is stop 18951, if you're stop, say, 15252, you type 15252.pdf on the end.

Hope this helps.

No probs, it is, very handy if your street isn't on the paper timetable! Tongue

LeeCalder · 14 Apr 2015, 10:06 am,

I live in Barley Mow and the closest my street get's to the paper timetable is either Ayton Village Centre or Portobello Board Inn!

, its the same as the 19 and 23 for me in Springwell, it's only timed at Thorney close shops or the Prospect lidl.

Along with the 5/5A - between Thorney Close Shops and the The Wavendon,Wavendon Cres

Both are the current Stagecoach paper/online timetables

The bus stop at central station for services to metro centre is similar but still in the old 3 column as opposed to 4. It is going downwards in numerical. Column 1 is 10 10a 10b column 2 is 98 98a 100. Haven't spotted any others yet though.

Looking at the times from Boldon Cinema on the NEXUS map thing and they still have the timetables for the 29/29A and the X36 as half hourly on that part of the route................... -.-

Oh yes, can't forget that! haha

The hospital one has the 2 down as Silver Arrow, 8A/78/78A down as Lime (even though its the new timetable for this months changes), OH and the 39 down as Doxford Clipper..... - http://liners.nexus.org.uk/24247.pdf

How long ago was the Doxford Clipper brand dropped.... they want to run the buses but yet they can't even get brands etc right................ -.-

Edit: 700/701 is also classed as Go North East and not Sunderland Connect.
