Looking at the same source, it would appear that the 470 and 473 will be extended from Alnwick Bus Station to terminate at Alnwick Retail Park with school time journeys running to Duchess Catholic High School (that happens at present although Travelsure currently operate those school day journeys on the 470). May be wrong but looking at the times it looks like the A1 will interwork with the 470/473.[Image: 29e178a54c1ae5124fb020f3ce0cc9ee.jpg][Image: ff35a6a477558a4e2cd369059cb505e7.jpg]

Yeah I'm guessing you are right - much improved service for Swarland and Newton on the Moor mind - currently only have one service a week by NEED.

Pretty professional looking website it has to be said, just a pity their new site doesn't appear in Google search results atm it seems.

Fair few of the photos used are mine (plus one of Adrian's and don't know about the coach).

I agree it looks quite good, though there are a couple of spelling mistakes there.

I only found it when I googled the timetables and it comes up with 'a user suggested this website'

On there website it appears the 885 Hexham to Byrness no longer operates as it is no longer up. Unless they typically forgot to put the timetable up.

885 still operating as far as I'm aware, still registered on VOSA and timetable is available from other outlets, so most likely just missed off their site in error.

Unfortunately after posting that, I did spot some errors, worse still the times on the 470 timetable on their site seem to differ by 5 minutes (earlier or later) to the times on Traveline's site on the stops between Wooler and Eglingham, according to Traveline the 470 departs Wooler Bus Station at 10:00, 12:00, 16:30 (seemingly is no 07:55 470 according to Traveline but 473 departs at 07:50), according to Traveline 470 departs Alnwick Bus Station at 09:00, 1300, 15:45? Traveline is saying to walk to Dispensary Street with the bus departing at 15:44 then last one at 17:20  PCL timetable claiming a 17:30 departure for that run. The times on Traveline's site match the times on the Northumberland Bus Changes PDF on Northumberland County Council's site, except they claim the 07:50 departure from Wooler whilst Traveline don't.

So, I would now advise waiting for the Nexus version of the timetable for the 470, 473 one seems right though.

The timetable for the 470 doesn't seem correct in my eyes either...

My question is where are they going to base the buses? Dump two new Optare Versas in a lay by somewhere? I hope not! Plus surely they will need a spare bus based up there
