(19 Sep 2015, 1:40 pm)Kuyoyo X66/X67 timetable now back online and more-or-less correct
EDIT: And the S1 is back up

One thing that really annoys me about that X66/X67 timetable is that they've put Hartburn above Harrowgate Hill and Great Burdon on Middlesbrough bound journeys so the evening X66 journeys that run via Hartburn have the times in the wrong order, so it goes Darlington at 20:30, Hartburn 20:52 then Harrowgate Hill at 20:38 and Great Burdon at 2043!

Good to hear that they are changing the timetable for the 2 on Sundays as I've often seen it running late at times on a Sunday since they merged the 2/11 although I wonder if part of the problem was the change of allocation from Solos to EcoCitys.

Always thought when they changed the 19 that it should have at least served the roundabout at High Grange like the 16 used to do years ago, infact the Scarlet Band 16A does this now. Should be intresting to see how Pulsars will U-turn at the roundabout at High Grange, Optare Metroriders and Solos can get round them fine but not sure what it will be like on a Pulsar.

Shouldn't think a Pulsar will have too much trouble at the roundabout. They are sometimes more manoeuvrable than a Solo, due to the front overhang. The old 11 timetable on a Sunday used to be tight in a Solo but ridiculous in an EcoCity. Time will tell on that one.

Doubt that the S1 would attract many (if any) 9-5 workers seem as it will only run on a Saturday as I imagine most people who work at Teesside Park will work more than just Saturday so would still need different arrangements for the rest of the week.

It will probably work in pretty much the same sense as the also Saturday only X24 Durham - Metrocentre really, pretty much all the passengers it will carry will be shoppers going to the clothing outlet stores and people doing their weekly shop at Morrisons.

My question with the S1 is, will you be able to get off at the stop opposite Toys R Us as the timetable/map makes it look like you will have to get off at Morrisons which I think could be a deal breaker as if I wanted to go there I would want to be off near the other shops and walking from Morrisons is a pain.

It's no less of a pain in the car, to be honest. It's often impossible to get parked (which is why we haven't been there for years)

Yes they will be serving Toys r Us as far as I know, but as I'm away I can't say for certain!
The idea of a Saturday service is that it can be operated by otherwise spare resources as the Middlesbrough town services 9/27/27a run with a lower PVR on a Saturday. It's only a trial after all, if proved to be successful then it may well be extended otherwise it'll be quietly withdrawn

I can confirm it will serve both the Morrisons stop and then the Toys R Us stop before leaving via the road behind Pets At Home. It is certainly a trial to see if the people that have been asking for a bus back to the Park use it. Let's hope it proves a success!
