with the changes next week will the 42 service also have NSA's like the rest of the indigo routes?
Now that Hexham railway bridge is open to traffic from the A69, have the various Tynedale Links reverted to their pre 6th June schedules or will some retain the 'missing' journeys (I am most interested in the 687 Hexham to Corbridge, but also the 682 that runs to and from Acomb - as that provided a service to and from ALDI)?

(18 Jul 2016, 2:26 pm)eezypeazy Paper timetables (dated 5 June 2016) are on some of the buses and at Hexham Bus Station. 687 departs Corbridge Hill Street at 1055, 1153 and 1255 M-F, 1055, 1255 and 1510 Sa, all via Aldi. Return trips leave Hexham Bus Station at 1135, 1635 M-F, 0935, 1635 Sa, and all run via Aldi five minutes later.
682 runs from Aldi to the Bus Station at (Mon-Sat unless otherwise stated): 0938 (Sa), 1000 (M-F), 1200, 1300 (M-F), 1400, 1500, 1600 (Sa), 1700 (Sa). 74 and 688 also provide journeys to/from Aldi, so it's quite an intensive service! The timetable display on the bus stop at Aldi is wrong - this has been brought to the attention of the County Council.

(18 Jul 2016, 2:35 pm)Andreos1 It could be one of four (Washington, Deptford, Chester or Peterlee).
I have a feeling it may be Peterlee, if only because citaro5284 said they were doing some runs on the 237.

(18 Jul 2016, 2:37 pm)G-CPTN Many thanks - I collected a timetable dated 5th June 2016 today, however, as 5th June was before 6th June (when the diversions started) I was uncertain whether this was 'old stock'.
During the bridge work diversions the ALDI 'shuttle' service was somewhat depleted - it is an excellent means of avoiding climbing through Hexham to the bus station carrying shopping.

I think it was said that it was more likely that a MPD will be allocated as the solos are too long for the route. That pretty much withdraws Chester and Peterlee, unless they were to transfer an MPD in. Washington would need another MPD too as all of theirs are allocated to the 85/86 (i think - may have 1 spare) leaving Deptford as the only depot.

Didn't know where to put this, Feel free to move this to another thread.
A very unhealthy sounding MPD 554, Has entered service at Riverside in Debranded NTL green.
Its also on the 88/88A which is pretty unusual for a first day in service at a depot.
