Blyth depot are great at ensuring that there is always a bus on the route, what annoys me is the amount of times branded buses are on different routes.

Generic branding for the X7/8/9/10/11 would have been the best option as any MAX bus can freely be allocated onto any of the specified routes.

Yes! It is baffling why the single-decker X9 has X8/X9/X10/X11 logos on the outside but only branded X9 internally. The whole fleet servicing those Blyth-Cramlington-Newcastle route should have all four core routes advertised.

It's strange and annoying(?) when the X8/X9/X10 are all standing at Haymarket but rather than appropriate buses, the X8 is a generic, non-MAX bus (despite being a MAX service now), the X10 or X11 is using the X7/X8 double-decker and the X9 is using an X10/X11 double decker.
