500 is from Durham Rail station to the Emirates
501 is from Lambton Park and Ride to the Emirates
502 is from Chester Le Street to the Emirates
In the past it was always a mixture of Yellow Deckers and Tridents/Presidents - to the Park n Ride at Lambton Estate anyway.
Guessing it will be the few Yellow Deckers which are left and the Northern Tridents/Presidents that work it over the weekend.
The Floaters Mill at Bournmoor is always a good spot for a pint (or several) in the beer garden, with plenty of the buses passing to and fro.
If I remember right, a few single deckers were chucked into the mix for the railway station jobs. Suppose they can easily swap if demand is higher at one place than the other.
Obviously the 78 can't be a decker, but hopefully the 71 will be worked by something bigger than the OK MPD
