Im not sure why they would put this

Wonder if it's a simple website error (GNE's website is particularly poor) or the changes have been so negatively fedback on they've quietly dropped them?

Or NECA, GNE and Arriva Northumbria have re-negotiated terms and the agreement will continue with some BSIP money thrown in to compensate for extra PVR or traffic improvements?

Whilst the QA is by no means perfect, if one operator didn't step in and restore a 7-8 minute service, a disjointed separate 10 minute service from each operator would be a worse deal for passengers especially on a corridor that justifies at least one 7-8 minute service or group of services.

On the website the picture headed "Whitley Bay beach" is actually the north end of Longsands beach in Tynemouth, looking onto Cullercoats, and the 309 doesn't go there!

Ouch, didn’t even spot that.

Apparently there is to be a new service 333 from March, and have won from Stagecoach service 787
