(24 Sep 2015, 4:48 pm)Tom 28A?

Exactly.

If it is staying, then there is potential overkill through Ouston.
If it is going, then early morning links, are removed.

My gut instinct, is that the X32 will operate something similar to the old 709 or 728 route from Stanley to Ouston, but follow the 28a route between Ouston and Kibby.
Granted it would be slower than the route MurdunoC suggested, but it would mean the peak 28a's can go - but links aren't lost.

Yes, though this is effective from 1st November 2015 (so not associated with the changes to services X30/X31 which are effective from the Sunday prior).

That should put an end to that speculation, eh? Tongue

Apart from the one discussed previously, no.
If my gut instinct is wrong and the peak 28/28a's aren't being withdrawn/changed - that gives a canny little frequency on the Ouston - Kibby - Newcastle section.

It also means Ouston sees at least 3 buses an hour to/from Newcastle.
Not too bad at all!

Now posting it on several photos. I feel like he is just wanting the attention now...

I don't like some of the changes if i have to be honest. I think that they'll be inconvenient for some customers too.

But not on my photos, I feel so left out!

This is the thing with service changes, sometimes they can be an improvement to some but an inconvenience to others, another example being me with the upcoming changes to the Arriva X66(X67) the people who board the X66 on the North Road - Great Burdon section of the route will go down from a 20 minute service to a half hourly service whereas the people who board at Darlington Town Centre, Stockton and Middlesbrough get an increase of frequency from every 20 minutes to every 15 minutes.

As the X31 is being withdrawn between Stanley and Lanchester, there will be one less bus - I imagine that the 831 will run to East Stanley (just an assumption, the times for the X31 on the current St Bedes timetable has the times from/to East Stanley) via the current X31 route.
