39 - still as Doxford Clipper.
78 - does not terminate at Annfield Plain.

The 78/78A both have the wrong destinations on the board... i reported this to NEXUS a while back but got nothing back from them....
RE: Bus stop numbers - Dan - 08 Sep 2015
..and of course the 8A destination is wrong too, as this goes to Stanley (0627am from Sunderland).
Let's see if Go North East on their case does the job, eh, Michael?

Hopefully... if NEXUS can't get the stops right... what are they going to be like if they take over!

Baffles me they can make so many mistakes with the liners.
"Chester Le Street" makes me want to claw my eyes out, too. What's the verdict from NEB's own Chester-le-Street resident..?

Let's hope so!
RE: Bus stop numbers - Adrian - 08 Sep 2015
Errors are forgiveable, but not correcting them in a timely manner is not. A lot of it is down to the amount of job cuts at Nexus over the past 5 years, rather than them not being bothered, I'd imagine.

Think all traces are gone...phew!!
Will have to double check the stop outside of Tesco heading towards the City Centre when I'm next there, as I think this was the bus stop which didn't want to forget it...

Was it not the other side, heading away from the City Centre?

Think the timetables were dated June (someone on a computer will be able to check the liners online)...
I can forgive the brand names being wrong (let's face it, they do change quite regularly), but why update the 78 to a new terminus if there's been no changes to route..? It's gone to Consett for years and I can't see that changing any time soon.

That's appauling
Bus stop numbers - Jimmi - 08 Sep 2015
One thing that irritates me is the timetables on the 5/5A route in the Bishop Auckland direction is where there is one evening service 5 journey that terminates at Newton Aycliffe, Meadowfield Way where Durham County Council's timetables on bus stops have it as a separate journey and it annoys me even more as it just says "Newton Aycliffe" which makes me think it terminates at Newton Aycliffe Town Centre when it runs further than that within Newton Aycliffe on this one journey.
Also if we think wrong brand names on timetables is bad, at least the timetables have all the services on them, unlike some of the stops down North Road, Darlington which has at least four services missing although they do have the seasonal Dalesbus and Moorsbus services!
