Changes to timetable?
Surely they aren't cancelling the late runs already?
Hope I am wrong on this one...
Seems to be a few, if only minor, changes to services outside of Sunderland!
Has anyone seen the late runs on the 4? How are passenger numbers?
What's the new Washington service? Workers service?
Interesting the 33 starts at Fawcett Street.

The late runs were introduced on 2nd November and the changes were registered about four weeks after that... There's usually a trial period of six months for this sort of thing.

I'd imagine that the timetable changes will be minor to coincide with the planned changes to services 82/83.

Starting the 33 from same place as stagecoach service 12 to silksworth, trying to claw back passengers from the 12.
Thought the 33 would have done mill hill too as the 133 redby once did
Totally random route in my opinion this 36 plan. Previous 36 never worked as stagecoach dominate with 4 and 13

Proposed

The 33 will be mon to sat daytime 15 minute freq, the bus will change into a 39 at Doxford international, the 39 will be every 15 minute frequency when the 29 is withdrawn , I think through travel will be accepted for residents at moor side and doxford to silksworth for appointments and shopping

Never seen it or used it on an evening/night since the changes.
Hopefully will be using it over Christmas.

Since the initial changes in November and the push at the time on social media, I haven't noticed any other marketing/advertising promoting the changes.
What that means, is anyone's guess.

It could be doing really well and doesn't need any additional advertising!

After a quick look, the last form of promotion to advertise the extended evening service was 18th November (two and a half weeks after the service changes took place). After that, the priority would have no doubt been to advertise the Sunderland Consultation. It perhaps would have been slightly confusing if both were being promoted at the same time.

Like I say, though, I can't imagine there to be any changes to the evening services based on the fact there should be a trial period of six months.

Well it's not random as such. I do understand your point that route from Chester to Town End Farm seems on paper very long and no ones ever going to use it point to point, but it's the local links that's important. 
The main section of route that has become popular is the 29 ie Town End Farm-City Centre which is why they've icreased the frequency on this route. Town End Farm-Boldon Asda is less used but the connections should remain which is why it drops to 30 minutes by 35 only. 
The idea has come to amalgamate service 29/35 to create more cross city connections in Sunderland. I believe the 35/36 will both run same route? (Royal Hospital, Durham Road, Herrington & Newbottle to Houghton). The idea to merge service 71 into this service aswell is to improve services for FenceHouses residents by giving the area a link to sunderland that was lost when 71 was last curtailed- GNE probably hope this will help passengers on the Houghton-Chester stretch which isn't the most profitable of routes.  

Also the numbering of this 36 hasn't really got anything to do with previous 36's- it's a new route not bringing back an old one, just simply using that service number.

Its not like the angel where people will be highly likely to get on it at Durham and go to Newcastle. The main connection with these would be Chester and Sunderland with the town end farm bit for people who live round there.

43/44 is a prime example of this too. Nobody in their right mind is going to travel from Durham to Newcastle using it (unless you're Malarkey). You've probably got a good three sections to that route. Durham - Stanley, Stanley area local travel, and then Stanley to Newcastle.

Think id rather get on the X21 to be Honest.

Well, me for a start!! It's the locality that counts, though!

I think it'll offer new connections for people at Town End Farm. Many a time previously I've got Service 78 into Chester on a Saturday morning, packed with people coming from Sunderland, to see our market. Just as many times I've seen people ask the driver where the market place was (obviously because they've never been before!), and say the reason for that was because they lived in and around Sunderland.

Service 36 should offer a whole new scope for the people at Town End Farm, as well as offering the essential local links, like Drifter60 explained! Fencehouses 'people' should now be able to travel direct to Sunderland, if the proposed route goes ahead.

Besides, the introduction of this service should replace both Service 29 and Service 71 - the latter of which was struggling anyway!
I can't see the point in the 33.
Is it any difference to the 2/2A to Silksworth?

The 2/2a will be replacing the 42.
The 33 is replacing the daytime 35 series between silksworth and town.

Worded badly, but what I mean is, is the 33 any different to the 2/2A from Sunderland to Silksworth?
