Nexus have a consultation for the 594 to basically retime it to 20 minutes later
So insted of it being 17.20 it would now be 17.40
I see Roger did a webinar about secrets of a successful bus operation this week and since I know there are loads on here who are fans of his, link is below.

Having seen clips of old BBC & Sky Channel Idents on YT, i was wondering if there is any Ai video software that could create a custom Ident.
We all have a feelings about some of the 'improvements' so far but thought there's no where to discuss suggestions which actually would be useful with severe gaps.
Some suggestions, mostly in Durham, from me:
1: Crook terminator extended to Stanhope via 101 route, 101 scrapped
6: Extended to Barnard Castle from Cockfield hourly, 85 scrapped
25/725: Merged to restore old route.
56: Upped to 2 BPH throughout and Sunday / evening service restored
X46: Extended to Stanhope every hour via it's one a day extension.
X46: Extended to Newcastle every hour and combined with X12 for 2 BPH.
N/A: Sedgefield to Newton Aycliffe, unsure on this one.
New direct links formed:
Barnard Castle to Durham
Stanhope / Tow Law to Durham
Langley Park to Newcastle
Crook to Newcastle
Darlington / Shildon to Stanhope

Have we got an estimated date when this usually happens. The result for the Q3/35 one still haven't been posted yet
Bit of a longshot, but does anyone know which was the last of 410/7410-420/7420 to be repained out of NMS livery into full Arriva livery?
Vaguely remember sometime early in 2001 riding a then newly repainted Palatine II in Arriva livery then days later, riding one still in NMS livery but fitted with a new Wayfarer 3 Ticket Machine.
I know there's already a thread generally on this but thought the Teesside one should probably have it's own thread than been stuck with the TNE bid.
Seen that Darlington in one of their latest council meetings has now released more details on this and the bid is for 62 buses split between Arriva Redcar and Darlington and Stagecoach Stockton.
See: https://democracy.darlington.gov.uk/docu...Report.pdf
There's also been a second document released by the TVCA on upgraded bus stops which has bus improvement corridors shown on maps.
See: https://teesvalley-ca.gov.uk/about/wp-co...024-fv.pdf
Edit: Someone confirmed it's the 2 at Darlington, 63 at Redcar with the rest at Stagecoach Stockton, left the original post below.
Now putting 1 + 1 together, which isn't always the most reliable by using the corridors on the maps and the depots listed above I have a feeling the bid might include these:
Arriva Darlington
2/2A (6)
X66/X67 (6)
Arriva Redcar
63 (13?)
X4 (8)
Stagecoach Stockton
36/37/38 (15?)
12 (6)
That's just speculating of course, but it would sense and would give a fair balance imo in terms of access across all areas, unlike other bids.
