Back in the 1990s and the first half of the 2000s, what timetable leaflets were produced in the area?

Was it the responsibility of the operators, or did Nexus used to provide leaflets for more than just secured services (as was the norm in West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Greater Manchester etc)?

And regardless of whether it was the operators or the PTE who did timetables, were they seperate ones for individual services like recently, or was there area guides/booklets etc?

Timetables after 1986 became the responsibility of the bus operators, printed as individual leaflets for each service, though the PTE still published local guides.

TWPTE/Nexus produced detailed massive fold out timetables covering each LA area (with most LAs divided into segments so e.g. had ST1 and ST2 for different parts of South Tyneside and N1-N6 for Newcastle/North Tyneside).  These were produced up until the end of 1998 then discontinued.  For a number of years thereafter Nexus just produced maps (which were excellent) in a series covering the whole region.  They did also produce some individual timetables, and a few booklets covering certain areas but largely around hospitals, key workplaces etc - but nothing like as comprehensive as they massive foldouts had been.

Nexus around here mainly did leaflets for tickets, metro, route maps, secured services, misc services, school services. Operators were left to do their own leaflets. Even some indepdents produced their own leaflets.

I know the likes of South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, Merseytravel and GMPTE did leaflets for all services. Not sure of the West Midlands as I didn't frequent the area much, mainly due to it being difficult getting cheap tickets on Virgin Cross Country Trains. Strathclyde acted similarly to Nexus producing leaflets for secured services, plus rail timetables in the Strathclyde area, with bus operators producing their own timetables. Not sure what the case is for each travel area now since I don't collect timetables anymore, and my travel planning is via digital means.

The councils around Teesside produced timetable booklets for all the services running in their areas, certainly Redcar & Cleveland did and I think it might have been a joint effort with Middlesbrough, Stockton and Hartlepool too if memory serves.
It was quite a thick booklet and they did yearly versions I think, but sadly I never kept any of them as it would be interesting to look back at now!

I picked up a giant version of the Hartlepool timetable one day from within a council office when I was doing some work for them. I then found out days later about all the cuts.
For some reason, I then binned it. Possibly disgust.

There's no magic money tree to support little-used services as well as producing giant versions of timetables in colours ranging from battleship grey to sky blue pink. Shame on you for such wasteful behaviour, whether your disgust was justified or not.

What we need is a QCS scheme that puts a stop to all these handouts the multi national operators keep getting.

Not official services no. But the old X32 did occasionally come down what was known locally as co -op bank in Kibblesworth.

The short cut route from Sunniside goes direct to Lamesley past the garden centre and actually omits Kibblesworth.  A bus could access that route, but if you wanted to turn and access Kibblesworth it's a single track and I don't like taking my car along there let alone anyone taking a bus.  Brings you out at the farm at Kibblesworth.  Probably meet a tractor head on.
