These links aren't working. I had tried to use these as I gave up trying to get anywhere on the Arriva website, and they're not up on Connect Tees Valley yet!

The links time out...they're really easy to find on the Arriva website!!! You just search for the service, click the scroll button which just shows the website times, then click on 'full details' in the top right and look below the timetable where it says a future timetable is available from Sun Feb 21 2016.
Try these:

28/28a
29/29a

So just to clarify; enthusiasts aren't allowed to comment on depot operation, because they "don't know what goes on behind the scenes", yet someone not old enough to even hold a provisional licence is more than qualified to 'assess' the standards of a professional driver? [emoji2]

If the driver was that much of an issue, I'm sure management would have stepped in by now.

Then thats a good type of driver who is trying to keep the service to time safely and legally despite the unfavourable conditions. It's only a VERY small minority who take the p**s.

Variation Accepted by SN: Operating between Newcastle and Freeman Hospital given service number 32/32A effective from 20-Mar-2016. To amend Route.
As of Monday the 0655 X12 from Middlesbrough may not be a Max bus as we are running an extra bus in the schedule to combat delays. Hopefully 1415 can be used most days but if not then it'll be a plain Pulsar.
Services 1 & X21:
https://www.arrivabus.co.uk/north-east/u...n-Closure/

Slight diversion in Bedlington Station, due to a bridge closure, it'll be in place from Monday 22nd February, until the 5th of April.
Service 33 is being reverted back to the seven journeys per day timetable.

Anyone know what these are for?

Something to do with the Craster roadworks, I believe. Although it's odd that they're changing the Seahouses-Berwick section.
Diversion - X9/X21/X22

For every night between 2000-0600 these services will be unable to serve Seaton Burn roundabout and Fisher Lane in both directions.

Buses divert via Snowy Owl, Stannington Village and A1 southbound and via A1, Stannington Village and Snowy Owl northbound.

Wonder if the 2016 Dalesbus offering from Arriva North East is going to be more like the 2014 summer season was where it was 830 to Ingleton then onto Settle as the 581. Last year it was Kirkby Lonsdale Coach Hire doing all the 581's between Kirkby Lonsdale and Settle (continuing to Skipton as the 580), whereas Arriva did more of a tour service heading to Ribblehead Station.

May have to try and to do Dalesbus this year as I never got round to it last year, although I'm not sure that I fancy spending around 3 hours on a Solo from Darlington to Ingleton. It would also depend on how the other Dalesbus services work out.

I would think it would be Pulsars, I believe it was mentioned 7445/6 are being refurbished to give Ashington more MAX spares

Ah okay, I'd heard about 7445/6 being refurbished, and just started to wonder when I read that Smile
