It has plenty of running time and it's literally a 5 minute part of a 60 minute round trip, would be weird to not run it around there.

The 938 on the other hand is a waste.

Dont know if this is odd or rare etc, but the OK branded coach was in Plymouth this morning

As far as I'm aware, the 938 is entirely commercial...

They were suppose to go down just before Covid properly kicked off, they actually made it there too for a few days before having to come back, guess they've went back now things are getting back to normal.

Bustimes has 6311/3 on the 10B 8th August, the only time they've been used since they came off X10s 25th July. Will that be correct?

I know 6311 was as I did see it but there was no sign of 6313

Just spotted the 9 off to Murton pride bus

Now that would be rare considering the 9 doesn't go to murton anymore  Tongue


RE: Go North East: Rare & Odd Workings - July 2020 - Acky81 - 27 Sep 2020

That’s exactly what I thought when I past it sitting in park lane interchange. 9 was changed back to 61 weeks ago so it baffles me why the driver had 9 Murton on

This is more or less impossible - there isn’t a 9 Murton destination programmed any more.

That’s what I thought dan. I presumed they got deleted once changes took place. It was definitely the pride bus I saw yesterday around 530pm
