RE: Howard Snaiths
It looks as if Howard Snaith have been adding to their bus fleet.
Firstly, they've acquired National Express West Midlands' Volvo B7RLE chassised MCV Evolution trial bus. Image is on the below link, courtesy of North East and Regional Bus Photos.

Also, they've acquired another Volvo B7RLE, but this one has Wright Eclipse Urban 2 bodywork. Again, the image provided is from North East and Regional Bus Photos.

Here is a list of services: http://www.howardsnaith.co.uk/timetables.html.
I meant in Tyne & Wear. When I set up all of the other operator threads, I looked at Nexus' website, and Nexus only list the services in Tyne & Wear.
Hadn't really expected the thread to grow (as with all others) to include information from outside of Tyne & Wear!

(11 Dec 2013, 9:51 am)BusFanPrudhoe wrote Might want to update post to say that. Howard Snaith are based primarilly in Northumberland, although one of the schools services registered commercially goes to St Thomas Moore in Blaydon, and I am sure there is also an X83 Newcastle to Hexham service.
I think most will appreciate how much North East Buses has grown in the past year. I'm confident in saying most of our users would have been from Tyne & Wear back in September 2012, when this thread was created.
Any discussion is of course welcome now, as we've grown to be such a large community.

(11 Dec 2013, 11:07 am)BusFanPrudhoe wrote Apologies if my previous post didn't sound like I appreciated the website. I do appreciate this website, it has helped me to improve my knowledge of buses, as well as corect entries on my own website. I will try and mention all users that provide info that I use on my site. I appreciate that sometimes keeping a large website up to date can be difficult (I have had many of my own websites covering various topics in the past).
Badly worded on my half - didn't mean that at all!

They do a lot more but thought I would mention this one as it enters Nexus land (just...)

According to their website there is an X83 service from Hexham to Newcastle, but I've never seen it before?

Hmm it will be interesting to see what happens with this one. I could see a licence decrease coming if found guilty...

RE: Howard Snaiths
The Dilston Shuttle runs from Dilston bridge to Hexham (or Corbridge) then to Corbridge (or Hexham) then to Dilston bridge.
In other words it does a round trip through Corbridge and Hexham to either side of Dilston bridge - and it's all free!
So you can travel (hourly) between Hexham and Corbridge (and vice versa) for nowt!
