(18 Nov 2019, 9:22 am)big mac Are the x24/X34 Sunday Christmas journeys profitable? I suppose they must be as they have introduced them again this year, but just wondering what sort of passenger numbers they tend to get?
X34 has had the Christmas Sunday journeys for well over 10 years now. Possibly 20 years. I know they were introduced when the X34 still served Haymarket Bus Station as I remember the Stagecoach staff being on the bus stand with sweet mince pies on the arrival of the first one of day.

Information from The Stagecoach North East twitter page:
#NclOps With immediate effect we have had to take the difficult decision to reroute the X63 service. Regrettably this will mean that there will be no service X63 on Kilingworth Road through South Gosfroth and BT Call Centre. Service will operate full length of Benton Lane

(20 Nov 2019, 9:19 pm)Michael Never heard anything but hopefully for the X24 and X34... X24 is in need of new buses.

Replacing older E400s that are being transferred elsewhere I believe.
(20 Nov 2019, 9:52 pm)AIG20 I assume the additional ADL E400s would either be for Walkergate or Slatyford due to the Low Emissions Zone that may be coming into effect soon in the Newcastle area, they would be a replacement for the ADL E400s that were sent to Stockton, and would allow more MAN ALX300s and the remaining Kinetics to be withdrawn.
