Late X30 seem to link in with 78A to continue journey (at least last one does). I suspect this is more about transporting drivers between Consett and Stanley.
6A reduced to hourly on an evening and last bus is at 23.10, not 23.15. M6 is now Lanchester to Metrocentre, with seemingly no 30 or 30A. M8 is retimed but not too different. Pattern of M6 / M6 / M8 towards Stanley. M7 is truncated to East Stanley Circular.
X70 now operates two hours later into the evening.
Most 45s / 46s become X45s / X46s except for 45E journeys, now just 45s. Last bus leaves Newcastle at 23.23, two minutes earlier.
From something I saw a while back, 15 becomes X15 and 15A becomes X5. I'm not sure of effect on timings.
I'll leave it to others to work out rest.
While I knew it wasn't going to happen, at least this soon, I was still hoping that the X21 would be extended to Tindale further into the evenings. Especially since the shops down there are open until 8
