(30 Jun 2021, 10:16 pm)Washingtonian Yeah I must admit this livery does look very smart. The dark grey and red go together very well.

I know someone mentioned that Deptford are running the 85/6 Washington evening contracts on an emergency contract. Does anyone know if this contract is a permanent change or just temparary?

Thanks

Temporary, due to the emergency contracts gained from GCT. Might change when Nexus announce the new tender.

Few points about changes to 309/310/311:

- Would it not make more sense for interworking pattern to be 309-311-309 with 310 standalone rather than 310-311-309-310? Obviously only pitfalls about my suggested pattern are driver change points as some would need done in Hadrian Park due to driving hours. Also, 310 would not get as much recovery time although still enough. The 309 can often get stuck down the Coast and extra layover / running time can be beneficial.

- Evening 310 will no longer serve Hadrian Park. But that will mean the last bus to Hadrian Park being at 11pm which although is late, will not provide anything 'after' 11pm. Would it not make sense to scrap the evening 311 and run an enhanced 309 & 310 service with the 310 via Hadrian Park? Could increase frequency to every 30 mins each until around 9pm then hourly each until after 11pm.

- Sunday 309 still a problem and again the pinch points on the Coast. Have always said that the 309 needs to go standalone on Sundays & Bank Holidays.

Yep even though they also have a lack of drivers available and are not running lots of their own commercial services, i think yesterday was the worse, 3 Quaycity buses parked up with nobody to drive them, causing massive gaps in service along with some 58/53/27's as well.

From Monday they are reducing frequency on a lot of routes and cancelling some other trips on the day but at least they will be letting people know about these ones which they havent been doing this past week.

This week has been the exception and not the norm, due to a spike in track and trace cases (a problem the entire industry is suffering from at the moment).

For every duty taken on for the Gateshead Central Taxis work, an equivalent duty on scholars duplicates has either been cancelled or sub-contracted out to other operators (Stanley Travel, A-line, and indeed from next week Coatham Coaches).

If GNE aren't running a route, are they going to be putting that out on social media because you know what people can be like!

A-Line, Stanley Travel and Henry Cooper Coaches have assisted GNE at some point during today. Here is Henry Coopers 3515HX on the 49. https://www.flickr.com/photos/gjm-photog...otostream/

I have seen on facebook Coatham Coaches are lending a hand too. It's good to see operators working together. The industry need to stick together and help each other out.

It is pleasing to see operators supporting each other.
Hopefully the independents are being reimbursed well for their efforts.

I'd also hope that the frequent 'incidents' being reported on social media aren't anything else other than incidents and nothing to do with T&T pinged drivers.

The 309/310/311 changes aren't included

"To provide faster journeys between Hexham and Newcastle, service X85 will no longer serve Horsley or Heddon-on-the-Wall. Passengers from Horsley can use Cross Pennine service 685, and passengers from Heddon-on-the-Wall can instead use service 685 or X-lines X84."

Looking at the new timetable, they're saving 6 minutes by staying on the A69, but an interesting statement to just hand your customers over to the competition.

The 689 just states there's a revised timetable, but looking at the changes and a journey each way on Saturday has been axed. So down to 2 now instead of the 3.

Looking at the timetable it looks like they're omitting Horsley and Heddon on the Wall in order to be able to still interwork the x84 and x85.

To think the 689 used to run 4 trips in each direction on a Saturday pre COVID, mind some of those journeys did used to carry fresh air.

True, but Heddon and Horsley aren't exactly buzzing metropolises, can't be many passengers they're handing over to Stagecoach NW and Arriva.

Delighted service X85 will run on evenings and Sundays. No more 33A or Q3 to and from Gosforth and then a walk to and from home for me. 33A should run 35 route to Fawdon on Sundays.

Could count in one hand the amount of regular passengers you pick up in heddon and horsley  these days,  pre-covid peak commuters used to go for the Arriva x85, so in a lot of respects it makes sense,  also a lot of passengers simply want to get to Newcastle end of, so this satisfies them more too.  Faster trip home from match days too.

As the X85 will no longer be serving Heddon on the Wall, does that mean it will be removed from the via points on the side of the buses?

Personally I think Fenham/Denton Burn should be promoted more (Denton Burn used to be on the side of the Scania L94s) even though most people use the X82. I'm not sure if Fenham/Denton Burn will be cut from the route in the future.

The 74 seems to be gaining some popularity in Cowgate and Slatyford recently. I'd alternate the route between Cowgate and Fenham as 74/74A for improved links.

Won’t the X84 buses still go through Heddon on the Wall? Besides, they wouldn’t rebrand new buses which have literally been in service for less than a year.
