It's the same as that circular route, who's number has bolted from my head in Sunderland which still existed until reletively recently.
Oh yeah, the 135/136 - that was another waste of money that could've been better spent elsewhere.
I agree with your original post though, surely the 317 would be sufficient on a Sunday. I'm not sure what the benefit of the 19 is considering Cobalt is dead on weekends, and most 19s I see are completely dead on Sundays.
