Eh? Aren't the "Little Coasters" named simply because they're:
A) Minibuses
B) Working along/near the coast
The brand name would still make total sense to me if the Coaster brand was discontinued. But maybe I'm applying a bit too much logic there.
Believe the idea was because you used them to connect to the Coaster at Wallsend and to highlight them running with the Coaster through Howdon.
It's become a bit lost now though since the 42/42A was curtailed at Wallsend and the 19 was added to it which doesn't connect to the Coaster (sensibly) at all (if it's even part of it anymore since there's not enough buses nowadays) and both routes go nowhere near the coast infact they run parallel to it.
