(08 Mar 2015, 4:22 pm)tyresmoke I'm sure that will be a mistake... it'll still run every half hour all day - just jointly worked by Jesmond and Blyth

(08 Mar 2015, 3:50 pm)DaveyBowyer What will the allocation be for the 306 / 308 on a Sunday? I know that according to the timetable, there is a 2.5 hour hap in service from Tynemouth to Newcastle twice on a Sunday then a couple of various other gaps on a Sunday too from Newcastle to Tynemouth. Hope Percy Main keeps their B9s in good nick as they're gunna be hammered with the lack of 306s on a Sunday and better timekeeping? That's rubbish as there will be 1/2 hour gaps between Billy Mill and Newcastle and the 308 will get hammered still.

(13 Mar 2015, 6:48 pm)Michael Seems most services are going to MAX... Is the passenger numbers decent on these routes, what buses will they use?
What buses will the X26/X27 use when its graded to MAX?
Can anyone please give me a list of current MAX and Sapphire routes within the NE? (also a list of upcoming upgrades?), Thanks =D

(13 Mar 2015, 7:08 pm)Michael Thanks tyresmoke, more routes than i expected.
Hopefully when the 22 goes to Sapphire it will gain more passengers, shame they can't do that to the X21.

(13 Mar 2015, 7:38 pm)tyresmoke Just hope that we don't run into capacity issues than can't be fixed quickly... We were able to fix some of the issues on the 7 and the 5 by running duplicates. The 7 is getting E400's to help boost capacity and hopefully solve the problem!

(13 Mar 2015, 7:41 pm)Michael Is the Sunderland to Peterlee section busy on the X21/22/23, which service is the busiest?
Hopefully that happens on the 22, i read on here i think, once the 7 went Sapphire, passenger numbers went up quickly.

(13 Mar 2015, 7:47 pm)Dan Not particularly...
The X21 arrives and departs Sunderland empty most of the time outside of peaks. The morning peak run operated by Stockton tends to have more than the normal Darlington peak run, but it's still far from great. No more than ten on this run, usually.
Services 22/23 carry more or less the same amount of passengers now. The old 24 service used to carry more passengers than the 23, but it seems to have evened out with the 23 improving since the Streetlites entered service.
Peterlee - Durham is the busy section on the 22. I'd assume that it's being upgraded to "Sapphire" specification with the hope of improving passenger numbers...
