(15 Jun 2018, 7:24 pm)S830OFT wrote 301: Metrocentre - Gateshead - Newcastle - Byker - Wallsend - North Shields - Tynemouth - Whitley Bay - Seaton Sluice - Blyth.Wasnt the 1 originally the 301 along with the 302 which changed into the 1 and 2 in 2007,so why allow it to gain the '30' bit again,also at some point in the past the 301 did serve the metrocentre but was changed, the 49 used to also be the blaydon racers aswell as the 48 never really get why they changed its route number tbh, but it became the 49/A/B/C so if you changed the 49 why dont you have the 49 and 49A do 1 bit and have a 48 and 48A do the other bit you suggested
