As a complete contrast to the massive amounts of cuts happening on the 24th July, one of the drivers on the 1 said today that the Q3 is going back to Wallsend from the the 24th July.
Seems quite a strange thing to happen considering it was only cut in March, so unsure if it is true.

Ye, could be the Houghton runs, replacing the 55?
I thought had moved on from having 4 different variations of service numbers!
Remember the 35/A/B/C and how confusing those were!

39B could be some renumbered 39 via tunstall estate, secured by nexus to replace the 38 in that section, on the 39 vosa listing, I can’t see anywhere on it mentioning Houghton

Why is the X45 and 16/16A showing their starting points at Hownsgill rather than Consett Bus Station?

Wonder how that'll work with the loop round Murton if that's a thing.Since an "861" is mentioned there, that'll probably be it. Though the 8 prefix may merely indicate that it's a scholars service, which the vast majority of 8xx services are iirc.

I reckon you're right with the 8xx prefix and it being a scholars service.

Presumably the first and last journeys of the day will run in service to/from Hownsgill, perhaps so they can claim BSOG

And will Consett's interworking patterns / PVR's be?:
- X45/X71/X72 - PVR 9
- X30/X31 - PVR 3 (changeover at Stanley + peak extras)
- 47 - PVR 6
Will the evening and or Sunday X30/X72 stay at Consett or will Riverside take these on interworking with the 6 & 12 using StreetLites?

Yes Indeed…
I wonder if they will bolt something onto the 34 to allow Crew Changes in Washington covering some of the axed routes?
Otherwise will be a lot of dead mileage?

Can't really use the 34 as you'll either leave Ouston or Urpeth Grange without a bus service. It'll more likely be bolted onto the 23 if anything or maybe something merged with the 25 and the 23 removed altogether.
The 37 will no doubt be redirected at the other end of the route to cover Washington village with the 73 potentially scrapped altogether (it copies the 8 mostly anyway).
Nexus don't care about GNE's dead milage that's not their problem.

not to be cynical, but I very much doubt that they read any of the responses.
