(09 Mar 2017, 8:24 pm)Tom wrote Wonder if they will both be operated by E200s from Walkergate then, it's not as if the 18 will need anything bigger other than peak times.

Also wonder if the 22 frequency will be reduced as noticed it is getting changed - passenger numbers seem to be very low from Cobalt to Wallsend outside of peak times so wouldn't surprise me to see some buses terminating at Wallsend from Throckley outside of peak times.

(10 Mar 2017, 12:29 pm)RBZ 5459 wrote When changes were proposed SC were looking into splitting the 22 in the evening, meaning frequency between Wallsend and Silverlink could be reduced, which with the current setup would probably mean every 30 minutes. Wibble after the consultations is a little flackey so time will tell how that's panned out.

PVR down by one  on the 18, revised 32/32A would see it go up by 2 or 3. The 1 I'd expect to lose one.

(12 Mar 2017, 11:33 am)Tom wrote 18 won't be going to Wallsend anymore but from next week you'll have the 42 and 42A anyway

A very interesting pair of registrations for Stockton depot

(24 Mar 2017, 9:00 pm)Michael wrote It is, looks like Stagecoach want to try new routes out, maybe they've decided to try it because the X24 has been sucessful?

More Omnilinks to come?

(24 Mar 2017, 9:09 pm)RBZ 5459 wrote Not this time. Bit too early to divulge so continue wibbling. 

(24 Mar 2017, 9:23 pm)Tom wrote Gold route maybe?

(24 Mar 2017, 9:27 pm)Andreos1 wrote When I first heard the rumour, my thoughts went to Gold.
It needs something 'glam', to attract passengers off the X10. However, it would be a big gamble to have anything too new allocated to the route.

(24 Mar 2017, 9:31 pm)Dan wrote The £3.90 (or whatever it is) day ticket would be good enough for a lot of people, I suspect, regardless of 'glam' !

Stagecoach through the Durham Rd corridor is a dream. GNE were at the best during the 221/21 bus war
