I've pulled this from Vosa, but it seems to be missing a few details for the service. Interesting that it isn't covered by subsidies when it wasn't making a profit?

Timetable can be found here:  https://www.nexus.org.uk/sites/default/f...180318.pdf

Some more info I found somewhere on Facebook:
Four tenders were received for the 808 service.
The successful operator will be Phoenix Taxis who are based in Blyth
They will use 22 seater coaches that have 2014/15 plates
The service will leave Otterburn at 07:00 (five minutes earlier than the present service)
The ticket cost will increase for a single ticket from present figure of £3.80 to £4.50 and for a return from £6.50 to £7.60. However I am advised it is likely there will be a weekly ticket available that should reduce costs.
Phoenix Taxis will start the service from 19 March hence no gap in the service.

No wonder PCL weren’t making much money - £3.80 single is very cheap for the distance. £4.50 is still pretty good mind.

Very good if you consider gne charge two pounds ten from deckham to newcastle adult single. A distance of two miles. It's about thirty miles from Newcastle to otterburn. Wonder If phoenix will outstation a vehicle at otterburn overnight.

The timetable looks to be a lot more achieveable. The old PCL timetable suggested just a 7 minute journey time between Newcastle and Ponteland - no idea how they got away with that for so long?

The other change is the route - Phoenix have registered the route along Fenham Hall Drive with a "Fenham" timing point there as well.

Hi all, in regards to fares from otterburn please see below
Adult single = £3.80

An interestingly random timetable that has appeared on Nexus site: PB1: Ashington - Cramlington - Newcastle on Boxing Day
Haven't seen or can find any reference to it on VOSA, nor does it really fit in with gaps in boxing day services. Random...

Probably an extra service to Arriva, is it likely they will use a decker?

Very strange as no late kick off match involved as originally thought.

It supplies a local service between Ashington, Cramlington, Bedlington & Blyth (with no service on the 1, 2, 19 and 43), so quite handy if it does run.
