A few changes to Scarlet Band services from this weekend:
Darlington service 20
New service linking Hurworth, Neasham, Darlington, Sadberge, Great Stainton and Bishopton running 3 days a week (Mon, Wed, Fri)
Timetable here
Spennymoor service 110
Re-routing of service to operate direct from Spennymoor to Ferryhill via Thinford, operating hours extended and re-timed to depart Spennymoor at 45 mins past the hour, from 0945 to 1745 (current last journey at 1422)
Timetable here
Spennymoor service 111
Minor retiming and 0831 from Spennymoor (school hols) withdrawn
Timetable here
Spennymoor service 112
Service completely revised to run from Spennymoor to West Cornforth only (via Green Lane and Metal Bridge... giving Metal Bridge an hourly service!), no longer serving Ferryhill or Kirk Merrington
Timetable here
Spennymoor service 113
Retiming to depart Bishop Auckland at 5 min past the hour, and Wood Lane at 35 mins past. Also believe it will be re-routed between Bishop and Spennymoor to give a more direct service (but the timetable doesn't give any detail).
Timetable here
Durham service 42
New addition to the Scarlet Band operation is service 42 between Durham and Brasside to give an (almost) half hourly frequency with the commercial Arriva service.
Timetable here
Durham service 252
Taking over the operation from Durham CC, Scarlet Band will run service 252 to Whitesmocks during the day
Timetable here
Service 115 Spennymoor-Greenways will no longer be operated by Scarlet Band after losing the contract.
I understand the changes to 110/111/112 are as a result of Scarlet Band taking them on commercially, they will use 2 buses (PVR -1). Service 20 is as a result of funding from eVolution and the parish councils in the villages and will be run by branded Solo MX55WCZ.
