North Tyneside service changes - March 2020
Got a GCT driver bragging that they've won a number of contracts from GNE. Routes mentioned are Whitley Bay locals, 11 (eve / sun), Washington locals (evenings), 19. He claims they have gotten a lot of contracts.
Sadly he is taking great pleasure in the fact that PM has lost a lot of work.

(15 Jan 2020, 2:21 pm)JP6004 To be fair I'd be well annoyed if I lived in those areas affected as my ticket would not be valid on those services. Really cant understand why if routes are run by certain companies during the day, why there should be a change of operator and muck people about so they pay extra to travel

(15 Jan 2020, 3:48 pm)2bagstew Exactly the same with Arriva X21/X22 then on the night time GNE 239 is the replacement between Peterlee and Sedgefield.At least they have a different number. Both Arrive and GNE operate the 86, and don't accept each others tickets.
I have asked DCC about about using Arriva tickets on their 239 service I’m still waiting for a reply that was months ago

They had the same issue when GNE ran some X46 services between Durham and Crook. The amount of people who got angry with the driver because they couldn't use their Arriva ticket was surprising. The average person would just think an X46 is an X46!

(15 Jan 2020, 5:06 pm)cbma06 The 239 used to be a daytime service aswell, there’s no way that arriva tickets should be accepted on a service which is secured by another operator because arriva saying its not profitable.
Secured services on evenings and sundays shouldn’t be operated by the same company who says that there are not profitable and themselves wanting to run the service using taxpayers money for there own greed

(16 Jan 2020, 12:41 pm)2bagstew The DCC 239 was a merge of the United/Arriva 234 between Peterlee and Sedgefield and United/Arriva 240 between Easington Village and Peterlee
The previous United 239/240 were circulars between Easington and Durham then later with the take over of TMS United had another 239 Easington and Trimdon Village to replace the TMS 235 that didn’t last long.
When SB ran the 58A Durham to Hartlepool via Peterlee on behalf of DCC Arriva 22/24 Tickets where valid.
Similar now the SB 57X DCC service Passengers can buy a cheap return which is also valid on the Arriva 57.
DCC needs to get their act together with the operators to organise region wide tickets.
They have been talking about it for years.

(16 Jan 2020, 4:13 pm)cbma06 Service 239 originally started at middlesbrough, but the Middlesbrough to sedgefield section got withdrawn, in later in life the 239 got extended from Easington to Sunderland for a short while, while the Peterlee corridor went into a bus war between United, ok and jhm travel

(16 Jan 2020, 7:52 pm)2bagstew Do you not think it was the United 235 Durham to Middlesbrough via the Trimdon’s which was formed When United took over TMS 1990 and they cancelled their 55 service Durham to Middlesbrough .
The Evening & Sunday Service was supported both By DDC and Cleveland CC then Middlesbrough & Stockton till they cancelled all supported bus services.
The JHM, OK and United bus war stated when JHM decided to operate a 209 service between Hutton Henry to Sunderland OK started a 210 service
United started extra services on their 230? all running 5 mins in-front of the JHM, United had the extra buses starting at Horden and Easington to run in-front of the JHM.
