RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - Tom - 27 Jul 2015
(27 Jul 2015, 10:30 am)Michael Not sure if its being asked or not.... how will the Tynedale Links interwork with each other from next Mondays changes?
Well here is what I think will happen:
Venture Solo SR (Mon-Fri only, interworking with 689):
#687 1055 Corbridge to Hexham 1109
#687 1135 Hexham to Corbridge 1149
#687 1150 Corbridge to Hexham 1204
#682 1210 Hexham to Colwell 1246
#682 1246 Colwell to Hexham 1309
Tynedale Links MPD (interworking with the 14:04 arrival into Hexham):
#682 1410 Hexham to Colwell 1446
#682 1446 Colwell to Hexham 1509
#687 1635 Hexham to Corbridge 1649
This seems the most logical way, but not sure about Saturdays.

(27 Jul 2015, 10:31 am)danpick Think the 74 and 687(?) are interworking which is the reason for the 74 being altered by 5 minutes.
Cheers, its a long layover though!

Only one 687 will interwork with the 74 by the looks of it, it seems the rest will interwork with the 689 Monday-Friday.

Cheers Tom, forgot about the 689, not sure why that's just branded Tynedale Links, unless that's where the extra MPD is going (as the PVR is increasing by 1), that would seem more logical.

Thee 689 was once branded as Tynedale Links. No idea why it was rebranded as Venture.

I'm sure it's always been operated by Venture MPDs though?
RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - Michael - 27 Jul 2015
Thanks Tom!
Not sure why its branded Venture either... it should be "Tynedale Links", if its interworking with 682 then why are advertising it as a "Tynedale Links" route when its going to be using a Venture Solo Sr! lol

According to the scheduled thread -
V1/V2/V3/V4/V5/V6/V8/V9, 130/131, 689, 704, 706/707 - Venture - Optare Solo SR - PVR 10

Probably just so it doesn't confuse passengers as most 682 journeys will be Tynedale Links MPDs.

It does appear to have always been operated by Venture branded vehicles but however was marketed as a Tynedale Links service for a period of time. Possibly explains the transfer to Venture?

Hopefully, Dan needs to update the thread for this weeks changes, he'll probables do it after these changes happen, as there's still a few routes missing, of course when he gets the time to!

That's why interworking services with other brands doesn't work, still think it should be "Tynedale Links", hopefully that happens from next Monday.

#687 1635 Hexham to Corbridge 1649
This seems the most logical way, but not sure about Saturdays.
I cannot understand why the 16:35 687 ends in Corbridge.
There are currently passengers that use the 687 from Corbridge (admittedly @ 17:06 rather than 16:49) to travel to Hexham after work finishes @ 5pm.
Some of these arrived in Corbridge from Hexham on the first run of the day (Corbridge 09:02)
And where does the 10:55 687 come from to start in Corbridge?

Looks like they've done a bit of brand shifting on the GNE website but i can't work out what has been added/removed.
