Obviously it could just be them not shifting the X8 onto the X7, but there could be an actual reason for it. I've noticed a few times during the day X9/10/11s have started tracking from Cramlington using a bus that had been on the 43/44/45.

Ah I'm not sure if I had to be 100% honest, I could be wrong though. The X7/X8/X9 swaps are all over the place in an evening though, weirdly the X9 which goes onto the X7 actually ran into Newcastle but then just disappeared so not sure what happened there.

Doesn't seem like it though as it was cancelled last Friday. Must say I feel sorry for whoever is running 7635 right now as I'd imagine he's just gone through a whole load of abuse.

They need to sort it out, note the 45 hasn't had a bus into Newcastle for 3 hours tonight either.
