For example, Sunderland will see a Sunday service on all services on Good Friday/ Easter Sunday and Easter Monday except the E buses, which will see a special bank holiday service. In Hartlepool, we’ll see services 1/6/7/36 running a Sunday service on those particular days.

(13 Mar 2023, 9:39 pm)Aaron21 wrote Didn't see a point in sharing since it's a small paragraph but here the stagecoach changes are. No timetables changes or owt else. Just the announcements of the 553 & 54
Following Nexus contract changes, we are pleased to announce that Stagecoach will be operating some new Monday to Saturday evening journeys on behalf of Nexus on service 54 between Newcastle and Whitley Bay. Sunday journeys will continue to be operated by Stagecoach as before, but with a few minor changes. The Monday to Saturday daytime service will continue to be provided commercially by Arriva.
Please note that from the same date there will be a change to ticketing arrangements in that Stagecoach own brand tickets (including Megarider, Unirider, U19 and VIP) will regrettably not be valid on this service.
In addition, from the same date we will also be operating a morning journey on service 553 on behalf of Nexus between Wallsend and Freeman Hospital Monday to Friday.
