(21 Sep 2015, 3:55 pm)Michael wrote Ye it looks like it, i wonder if all 4 will go Black for ToonLink, although i don't think the PVR won't go up by that much with changes (unless they want them to stop interworking?), or they are including a new service in the brand, which as yet to be put on VOSA?
For all we know, the 15/15A might be getting branded, using a black base... with the 4th Omnicity acting as a spare.....
But i'll go for at least 2 going Black for the ToonLink to stop interworking...

Was wandering why the 17A drivers changed over at Percy Main Metro yesterday.
11/95 interworking?
PVR works out perfectly too, with one spare.

I suppose, in your defense, it was strongly suggested that the 95 will interwork by somebody who seems to know what he was talking about.

95 interworks with 64 and both run once an hour.
X97 is basically the old 98A/98 but only runs in rush hour.
97 goes to Metrocentre
97A goes old 97 route to whickham then picks up the old 98A route back around to Whickham front st. All will be highwayman buses
Also 31/32 is scrapped
New 12/12A replaces them. Some slight route changes on these services aswell
49B scrapped
49A is replacement slight changes to route around Winlaton aswell as 49.

Just as a thought, could the through route be promoted and have it operate as one service?
It may be taking cross city links to the extreme like.

(21 Sep 2015, 6:53 pm)Dan wrote No - both of these numbers were drawn by hand rather than a specific font.
(21 Sep 2015, 6:54 pm)Michael wrote Who ever done it, they did a good job.
Will they be doing anymore for future services?
(21 Sep 2015, 7:06 pm)S813 FVK wrote Ah. Seems incredibly similar to the ethnocentric font so thought that they used that font rather than the number being hand drawn.
