Have SB been getting new buses other than the solos? Something cream and blue passed at the time the 58 was due to pass us, earlier. Whatever it is should be leaving Durham around now (12:05)

There's some changes to the S1/S2 from January 2nd 2018. All journeys will now run as S1 and looks to have a extra 5 minutes running time at peak times.

Does anybody happen to know which service the afternoon 88 interworks with? I can't seem to find anything that fits but doubt it would be a standalone board! Thanks, Peter

Don't know the answer to that one I'm afraid but my guess would possibly be one of the two 111/112/115 boards as they both drop out at around 14:30.

There is also some timing changes to the 112 from the same date. Timetables can be found here: http://www.cartogold.co.uk/durhamPT/

If you look at the 58 timetable there is mistake on the Hartlepool - Durham section..
Also on the timetable boards it down as 58A rather than 58..

NX55FFS on service 16 again today, YJ55YGL hasent been on in over two weeks now.

What is allocated to service 58A to Peterlee? Also does it serve the Bus Station? As Google Maps says that it starts at Passfield Way.

They just use whatever has been on the 58 that day, so usually the Enviro's. It commences from stand C at the bus station, the samwe stop as the Durham bound 22 and 24.

Solo's YJ05JWN & YJ05JWO are now branded as 'The Pink Bus' for service S1.

I had a feeling Scarlet Band would get this.

Believe all of the Solo's have been aquired in the takeover, VU52UEF and MX08DFY are still being allocated to 108/109

Scarlet Band are the Solo whispers.... they've also carried out repairs on SB10BUS for JSB. Suspect it'll be offloaded for a Merc one at some point.
