So here is my first few Suggestions for Transdev in Yorkshire.

41/841/X41 - Middlesbrough - Whitby - Scarborough - Leeds
42/842/X42 - Middlesbrough - Scarborough - York - Leeds
44/844/X44 - Middlesbrough - Wetherby - Leeds
46/846/X46 - Middlesbrough - Northallerton - Harrogate - Leeds
47/847/X47 - Middlesbrough - York - Pocklington - Beverley - Hull
48/848/X48 - Scarborough - Filey - Bridlington - Hull

Not to repeat what others have said, but the destinations are covered via the intercity coach network or by trains.

In the past, I did suggest the Scarborough - Middlesbrough run could have worked, if only because of the reputation the x93 had/has.
I do think the horse has bolted with that one.

If the alternative to the x93 did come off, we could have seen another operator working in the area - giving the native operators a run for their money.

* Scarborough - Middlesbrough (via moors)
* Middlesbrough - Durham (via Darlington and A1 (m))
* York - Middlesbrough (via Pickering and Helmsley)
* York - Middlesbrough (via Easingwold and Thirsk)

With those routes, although they are possible via train for point to point journeys, there is scope in picking people up 'along the way', in places not served by train or intercity coaches.
