In the

"1878 saw the opening of the first horse tramway in the Tyne and Wear area. One hundred years later in 1978 we are on the verge of Metro introduction"
To celebrate, the Tyne and Wear Passenger Transport Executive operated a Centenary service 44 between Newcastle and Gosforth Park through the summer of 1978. Two buses were used - a blue Leyland PD2 built in 1948, and a yellow AEC Regent built in 1950. A timetable leaflet for Centenary service 44 can be found in the
TWPTE thread.
