Surely they're not going to start changing the number mid route just after getting new branded buses and publicity?!

(31 Jan 2015, 12:17 pm)cbma06 Didn't someone comment saying that Arriva doesn't have the same number when splitting the route into 2?, if arriva splitting the X93 then their should of ran the X12 (old X1) as X2 the full route with the split at Durham.

(31 Jan 2015, 9:48 pm)tyresmoke An update on this after a conversation with people in the know, the number will remain as X93 across all three parts of the route (splits in Guisborough & Whitby). This comes after confirmation was gained from the authorities over what is and isn't acceptable apparently. I too thought it was a strange time to split it, just after the buses had been fitted with tachographs - but this is why and it makes sense to me. GNE and Stagecoach have got away with it for years of course!
I wonder if we will see any other longer routes renumbered to match on all parts. The 685 would be one that sticks out for me!

(31 Jan 2015, 9:52 pm)citaro5284 Have not got away with it, more like reading the rules and the interpretation of them and what the law actually states.
Is there any other Arriva companies do split registrations?

(31 Jan 2015, 10:03 pm)Dan Arriva North East has done it for a good few years now.
Found this post on Facebook - quite humorous! The digs towards Stagecarriage are unreal.
Arriva Cymru used to do it on their 5 & X5 services (Llandudno - Caernarfon) and also the 11 service (Rhyl - Chester) apparently. Not sure if they still do, or if the routes have changed since they first started doing this.

(31 Jan 2015, 10:11 pm)citaro5284 Ah so to put it in Scott's words....Arriva have got away with it for years as well, no need to single out GNE or Stagecoach then

What I meant was using the same service number for all parts of a service, like the 685 by Stagecoach or the X7 as a GNE example. Arriva have split service numbers for the last few years

(31 Jan 2015, 10:45 pm)Dan Always bewildered me why Arriva didn't bother doing that in the first place... The change in route number adds unnecessary confusion, if anything.

(31 Jan 2015, 10:48 pm)G-CPTN I suspect that they were uncertain of the legality, and wanted to stress the difference - which, of course, confuses the passengers.
Another thing that confuses is that Stagecoach break the 685 at Brampton whist Arriva do it at Haydon Bridge.
