(27 Jul 2023, 7:13 pm)Storx It's a slightly different route from Weetslade to Cramlington mind as it's driving half way down the B1321 and joining Fern Drive half way down at March Road. 

Don't believe any bus has every gone down there before as far as I'm aware but it serves pretty much all of Dudley / Annitsford where people are.

It's mentioned in the Nexus document.

March Road was used for diversions for a short time in United days. If I remember correctly Northumbria / Arriva used March Road for a time in early days, can’t be sure though. 343/344? 365/366?

Aye possibly, I always thought they done the length of it I know the 363, 100% did. Not sure on the other's, bit before my time. The fact there's bus stops on the main road probably suggested something did though.

Edit: Just had a look and found the old route map in the area from 1981 and appears nothing did, see: https://www.northeastbuses.co.uk/bygone/...er1981.pdf

What a Great looking network NT had in 1981. Good to see the 3XX numbering coming back. After 37 years of deregulation, we’re about to come full circle. Like we see with energy company profits, it’s rip off Britain.

The 365 did according to a nexus map i have (think the map is dated about 2006ish)
Edit: The Evening and Sunday Journeys of both 365 and 366 were operated by Blue Bus Services in 97/98 so stagecoach are techinically returning to an old route.

Busways did an express from Cramlington to Haymarket for a short time, X43 I think. I think they used Scania single deckers on it.

It started off with Scanias, then they allocated Volvo B10BLEs to it with R236KRG being branded for the service. https://www.flickr.com/photos/16042610@N07/8904354414

I remember when the X43 started up, it was just after stagecoach purchased Busways in the mid 90’s

Pointless doing small runs. Give it to operator rather than fragment it.

I suspect Stagecoach would have attempted to retain the contract but another operator was simply cheaper.
