Thanks. I am planning on trying it out soon. I think I will only need a Blue Zone for Eldon Square and Cobalt Business Park on Tynedale Express and Cobalt Clipper services?

Don't suppose 3995 and 3996 will utilise there open top functionality for use along the coast in North Tyneside. The old open top routes 332 and 333 are a great miss.

Blue Buzzfare will get you as far as the Frenchmans (Just past Throckley bank top) - If you want to ride the full route you'll need a 3 Zone+ Buzz as it goes through Cherry and Orange as well - you need all the zones you travel through - not just the one you board at. NSAs were recently introduced on the route, but still need a bit of tweaking at the moment.
