(11 May 2015, 6:12 pm)Kuyoyo Sadly, it sounds like it's outside factors as to why the 45/55/271 have been cut. The 84 might have been going the same way however it's actually making a significant amount of money per day compared to the other services.

Always the same for independent companies, any idea if other companies will take over the routes or merge them in with their own routes, not from area so not really sure if other companies run the routes?

Judging from my observations the other day the 55 didn't pick up that many passengers, the 271 had me and one other passenger between Saltburn and Guisborough and I think one or two boarded here so I am not surprised to see these go based on my sightings on Saturday. The 45 I am a little surprised about as it carried okay numbers but not an extordinary amount when I have used this service. Have seen the 84 have a good few passengers on when I have seen it in Stockton and when I went for a short ride upto North Tees Hospital.

It is a shame to see these services go but sadly this is just one of those things that happen.

Only noticed it at speed the other day - but there was what looked like an old school Volvo/Plaxton coach at the Stagecarriage depot.

Anyone have more info on it?
Was parked in a way, that the back end was facing the A66, so didn't get a proper look.

Edit. Found in fleet lists. Not a bad guess! Leyland/Plaxton. Rather than Volvo/Plaxton!
