Yep that's right 5 starting and finishing in Whitby that run all year round, 3 starting and finishing in Middlesbrough that run March-November (according to the new timetables on the Arriva site they're starting later on 14th April next year) and now an additional 2 starting and finishing in Middlesbrough running July-September. 

And then of course there's the 09:20 journey from Scarborough to Whitby that runs onto the P1/2. Is there a reason this journey doesn't run to Scarborough in service, for example they could have had an 08:06 journey from Whitby??
