(19 Jan 2017, 7:06 pm)Kuyoyo So, we have the start dates for the summer timetables on the Whitby services then. X93 one seems quite late compared to the past few years.

Looks like the week before Easter.

Arriva will be operating the 900 Metro Rail Replacements between Shiremoor and North Shields on Sunday 29th January 2017.

Looks like Arriva's metrocentre X24 is being cancelled from 26th march according to VOSA (sorry can't copy and paste it)

I never see it - How busy is it usually?

Not as busy as the X22 - it only runs every 2 hours, which must people off, given that it's a delay prone route, and there is no alternative that can be used entirely on an arriva ticket, so not really worth the risk. I haven't caught it since the introduction of the £1 child fares on most GNE routes, but they can't have helped it, since at least half of the bus passengers to the Metrocentre tend to be kids, on a Saturday.

This news doesn't surprise me, given that there is going to be a completely different X24 running to DBS from Horden, soon.

RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Ambassador - 03 Feb 2017

The 554 is changing its timetable from Monday inline with Metro timetable changes.

Additionally the service will operate all day on the 2nd March to support a jobs fair at Quorum. This means it will run from 06.42 through to 18.04

This service will continue to run. 

Metrocentre-Durham & Durham-Horden (no through journeys) are numbered X24.

Why have they cancelled it on Vosa then doesn't look like it will run

An having 2 services serving the same bus station with the same number, but quite clearly having nothing to do with each other is just plain bonkers. They even changed the x1 because there was another in the region and their paths didn't even cross.

All of about 3 people appeared to have arrived at the metrocentre on 1479, early this afternoon. That is not a successful bus service!

Nah, we were waiting forever for a 49. Let a NR citaro go and had to wait 25 minutes for the next. My feet wre bloody sore from standing around.

RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Kuyoyo - 05 Feb 2017

The Teesside Feburary Timetables are now both on-line at Connect Tees Valley and in paper form in the Teesside Travel Shops. As such, the non-Sapphire workings on the 5/5a are as followed:

AM: 0730 5a from Hollybush Hotel to Middlesbrough
PM: 1647 and 1727 5a from Middlesbrough to Skelton Hollybush Estate

One interesting inclusion on the 5/5a timetable is that of the peak time X93 departures from Middlesbrough on the afternoon as well as the first inbound X93 on a morning.

Won't there be a spare Sapphire bus now that the 5A is terminating at Skelton?

Still think it a short-sighted decision shortening the 5A now that a pub and other retail outlets are being built on the Asda site.

I agree there.

There will be two spare Sapphires rather than one now unless they lose one elsewhere.


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - GuyParkRoyal - 06 Feb 2017

Arriva will be providing the Metro Rail Replacements between St James and Wallsend on 11, 12, 18 & 19 February.

Think they're withdrawing Cadets rather than transferring 1512 away.

Yes, there is a spare Streetlite - and of the two, the 1647 from Middlesbrough is the more likely to be allocated the spare as it runs off a 27 that also does both 805 trips.

A more interesting development from Monday is the transfer of the afternoon peak X12 from Durham at 1715 back to Stockton.
