Probably because X70 running later into the night
And X30 running hourly, these later services will inter work with the 6A and be ran by riverside not Consett.

Wonder if toonlink brand being dropped from the 6. Would seem strange if it was as new streetdecks do have toonlink colours at rear.
Maybe before long toonlink brand will transfer to the 10....

Seems all Consett bound streetdecks will have black rears. (Stand to be corrected)
Workings are X70/X71-X47-X71/X70
X45-X31-X46 and X46-X45. Means most breaks will be at Consett X5/X15 as now.

(03 Jul 2019, 7:14 pm)Ds1197 Will the 97 be interworking with another service?
12s on a Sunday (I think).

X15/X5 - This service offers fast, direct connections between Consett, Lanchester and Durham, and will soon become part of our high specification X-lines network.
So the 3 Enviro 400's maybe as previously mentioned?

Nope, Streetdecks for X5/X15, X31/X45/X46/X47/X70/X71. E400s are for X30s - despite the changes meaning there's not enough of them to cover all 4 X30 boards.

(04 Jul 2019, 12:09 pm)L469 YVK So will the 4th X30 board be run by a corporate StreetLite?
My thoughts are no, if it was it would be completely different spec compared to the E400s. Also 5451 acts as a spare for the diamond services. The other spare, 5419 I would expect to go with the red kite branded examples when they go.

Unless GNE are happy with the E400MMC performamce and they tag an extra one on when they come to replace the Red Arrows or TVT B9s.

Either way getting new buses! Very surprised.
Noticed the 30/30A being dropped in favour of the 'M' service, noticed its only once an hour, oppossed to the twice an hour 30/30A
I remember the uproar when the X30/X31 were curtailed at Stanley originally.

Hopefully its just scrapped all together. Not a fan of the livery or the name.
Black cars and coaches look smart - black service buses do not for some reason.

I think it's quite smart. The B9s looked great when they first got repainted black

Well if it is scrapped, the Black Cats livery's days are likely numbered, too.

I think the X-Lines brand is great to be fair to GNE. As long as they don't dilute it the way Arriva did with MAX, then I can see X-Lines being a success. Ok, maybe questionable about the Red Kites joining the X-Lines brand but the X45/X46 are only slightly slower than the X70/X71.
X-Lines potential list of routes:
- X1
- X5/X15 - Done
- X6/X7/X20 - Done
- X9/X10
- X21
- X30/X31/X32 - Done
- X45/X46/X47 - Done
- X70/X71/X72 - Done
- X84/X85
