Sunderland to Ryhope Village (1 trip number)
Ryhope Village to Houghton (another number - I believe this was supported financially)
Houghton to Barnwell (another trip number and also supported)
Northlea in Seaham was always busy but you can't get anything bigger than a Solo around there.
Regarding the 61, I believe this to be branded Mercs from what I've seen
I wonder if the 62/62A will use Solo's and the 65 either Versa or Streetlite.
