I know the X95 used to be a decker thats probs why it didn't go under the bridge.The routes don't go under the bridge because at the time that road lead to a construction site and some fields.
Didn't 154 used to Start at Sunderland
Had a look through the book and most of them were hourly, except:
37 and 151 which were every 30 mins (37A was evenings and Sundays only, hourly, but half hourly on Sundays between Parkside and the harbour)
152 which did whatever this is (if you like poor headways, eat your heart out here):
I think the 154 did go to Sunderland but only breifly.

Sure, it was a bit cheeky prefixing the route number with an X when there were quicker options provided by all-stops buses, but with the X1 going all stops, perhaps they could make the 55 limited stop throughout, or making the X1 limited stop, at least to Easington Lane?
