(16 Nov 2022, 9:14 pm)toward6931 what as in arriva operating from the depot or handing over the service?

First I've heard about this too. Nowt on DVSA about it either.

Possibly someone getting their wires crossed with it being ran out of the Arriva cabins?


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Aaron21 - 17 Nov 2022

The 685 is already ran out of Walkergate by Arriva. Its possible as heard from a lot of people Arriva were called to a meeting either last week or this week to discuss the running of the 44/45/51/52/53/54/55

Shocker is they never turned up to the meeting. Nexus were there as well


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - omnicity4659 - 17 Nov 2022

they were called to a meeting to discuss the reliability of the 44/45 with residents of dinnington and wideopen

no idea what the 685 or 51/52/53/54/55 have to do with it?

It's not really changed that often 

Was GNE then GCT now SNE after a few years.

Also effective 12th Dec. Pretty quick that. Have GCT given up? Possibly concentrating more on Durham area services as very little South Shields.

Driver availability an issue for GCT, perhaps, following recent DCC tender awards, and terminated their contract for service 516 early?

Maybe SC could extend the route or change it slightly to add it to be more attractive. 

However it may be getting more use with it being a SC Service now in a Stagecoach heavy area

The extended ticket boundaries represent good value for travelling between Hexham and Newcastle. 

At present it is £6.50 for a single between Newcastle and Hexham, so a £5 day ticket seems decent.

Single is only £2 which means return is £4. But with the day rider means excellent connectivity for local services in Newcastle. That said they can’t run the services they have 30/31 regularly cancelled so not sure how they can operate extra routes. Not to mention the state of their fleet.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Lollist - 27 Dec 2022

They are getting 20 odd new buses and sending their old ones away to stockton

As the 685 will be mainly (60/40) operated by Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire it seems perfectly reasonable that they have produced the timetable.

Stagecoach CNL actually do timetable publicity as well. So I wouldn't be surprised if a leaflet is adorned the vehicles or at Carlisle Bus Station and Eldon Square in due course

North East still produces printed timetables. Not sure why timetables aren't distributed on buses or local facilities though.
