Their first passenger carrying service should have just left Kings Cross, ahead of stops at Stevenage, Newcastle, Morpeth and Edinburgh.

Anyone have any idea of the passenger load for the 21 from Durham to Brandon.

I know they are called the Peterlee Purples, but why not the Little Lilacs, or Little Violets to connect with the 55.

Why are the Sunday evening 310 journeys ex Newcastle scheduled to run via Hadrian Park, yet the Monday to Saturday evening journeys ex Newcastle aren't?

Is this due to funding arrangements with Nexus or a mistake when creating the timetable?

Looks like the extension to Amazon in Washington is doing well, spotted this on Dan's Twitter:

Significant passenger growth on our Connections4 service to
@AmazonUK at Follingsby Park has seen additional duplicate runs added to the timetable, with even more to follow from the end of this month. Excellent that so many of their Associates are choosing bus to travel to work

Looks like more Amazon runs are being added, which is brilliant.

As the September changes thread was closed, I had to make a new one - couldn't find an existing thread to place it in.

Yesterday 4 were off and now there is 3, there is only 9 of them. Why is it soo bad.
