Went back and couldn't find anything for the 353 but it has a new timetable from 03/01/2016:
http://www.nexus.org.uk/sites/default/fi...030116.pdf - looks like timing changes to improve reliability.
If it's already been reported then can a admin remove it?

The point to point timings look rather 'funky' too. Compare the evenings against the daytime and there's a fair few places which get comparatively greater time during evening periods. That is most odd indeed.

(30 Dec 2015, 4:01 pm)dannygee Which routes are GNE going to look at next to change or add extra services in?My prediction would be the North Tyneside or Northumberland areas when the Solo SR's arrive for the North Tyne Links & Tynedale Links.
North Tyneside? Northumberland? Mainly Percy Main depot workings?

(30 Dec 2015, 4:09 pm)BJ10VUS I'd agree with North Tyneside, but Northumberland has just been done, with the addition of Haugh Lane Aldi to the timetable of some of the Hexham services.

(30 Dec 2015, 5:01 pm)BJ10VUS It certainly seems like a very useful provision. I'm rarely in the area, but how are you finding loadings? Is it being very well used?

There isn't an unlimited supply of advertisement boards in the fleet. The ones on the ex-Brighton & Hove Scania OmniDekkas came from Dennis Tridents which were due to be withdrawn.
If there's none spare at the moment, the Volvo B9s undergoing repaint would not be able to gain any advertisement boards. Besides; surely if there was a decrease in the PVR, it would result in 3943 no longer forming part of the PVR?

(31 Dec 2015, 1:41 pm)Dan As mentioned previously; from 3rd January 2016, the nPower supported evening journeys withdrawn on service 201 (20:15 from Bracken Hill on Monday - Friday and 18:15 from Bracken Hill on Saturdays) and X35 (20:27 from Peterlee on Monday to Friday).I believe some of the timetable amendments will be to make the X1 run a few mins later after 6pm; as some people travelling from Rainton at 6pm would miss the connection with the X1.
It is clear that nPower are withdrawing some of their support for some bus services; indeed, JP6004 has already mentioned changes relating to services 921/922 here. I'd suggest that changes will be made to services 4 and X1 to coincide with these changes, given that services X1 and 921 and 4 and 922 currently interwork.
Perhaps provisions could be made to divert certain journeys via npower - giving npower employees an alternative to having to connect at Houghton-le-Spring?

(30 Dec 2015, 6:29 pm)G-CPTN Difficult to assess, as the buses are 'through' buses that stop there to and from their various destinations.
I don't see long queues waiting, but there again I never have to wait long before a bus arrives to take me where I want to go (although half of the buses are heading off to other destinations).
The biggest problem is the rush-hour traffic (yes, even in Hexham) around 5pm which interferes with buses that have to do the return journey to and from Alemouth Road within their normal route (which would otherwise just continue along Station Road).
