Just spoken to someone on GNE live chat asking about the Stanley changes timetables, they said they 'should' be available by the weekend.
 I can image that behind the scenes these changes involve alot of hard work, hopefully for the better once things get going!

Judging by Traveline, it seems I was right about the 45/46 running 10 and 20 minutes apart with the 47 being sandwiched in-between to create a 10 minute frequency between Newcastle and Rowlands Gill.

Here is how the daytime frequency will work from Eldon Square.

00 mins - Service 45
10 mins - Service 46
20 mins - Service 47
30 mins - Service 45
40 mins - Service 46
50 mins - Service 47

Other changes are now also on Traveline.

Think i'm right with the New PVR's...

Stanley PVR’s 
 
 
6/X70/X71 – 10 PVR
16/16A – 9 PVR
30 – 2 PVR
V7/V8 – 3 PVR
X30/X31 – 6 PVR

Also tried to do Gateshead:

 
11/11A/96 – 7 PVR
12/12A – 5 PVR
64 – Found the timetable, honestly, what a pointless service, 8 minutes for the route and its hourly, probs interwork with another service…
49/49A – 10 PVR - 49B looks to be replaced by the 49A. 
95 – Can’t find the service on Traveline yet.
97/97A/X97 – 8 PVR


Anyone wondering what the X66 change was, this has appeared: (the time of the service is for 12pm) 


X66 - Gateshead (centre) Metro Interchange Std G, Teams Team Street Sw, Teams Team Street W, MetroCentre Handy Drive Bus Depot ,MetroCentre Bus Station-Std C

And the 45/46 timetable is a weird one, with long layovers at Consett. The 6/X70/X71 interworking has done away with the excessive layovers there on X70/71, replaced by long ones on the Red Kite.

A good move. The Red Kite has always been a good one for buses running in twos etc.

(07 Oct 2015, 3:16 pm)S813 FVK A good move. The Red Kite has always been a good one for buses running in twos etc.

As services V7/V8 replace service X43, the corporate liveried Streetlite allocated to service X43 at present (5401) will be freed up and form part of the PVR of services 45/46. The aim of these changes is to make Stanley's network of services fast, frequent and reliable, and increased layover should increase the reliability of the 45/46 services.

This does mean that Stanley will be covering a much larger PVR with just one red Streetlite to the same specification as the branded vehicles, and I'd imagine services 8/78 would take priority over services 45/46 given that 5419 is branded for Beamish Museum which service 8 will serve.

If you look at it from a drivers point of view its not, in the morning you might do 2 round trips in the mornings i.e 45 con-ncl / 46 ncl-con-ncl / 45 ncl-con then break, however if your 10 mins late on the return to consett the next driver will be late out and the run is hard to get back on time, so by putting in the extra bus this keeps the service on time. Also is the V3/V4 timed to have a 10min frequency towards shotley bridge?
