For the other 6 days of the week the 418 is operated by Travelsure. The only non Perrymans buses running on Sundays north of Alnwick are the Arriva X18 and 418 so there's very little chance of confusion.
Having said that Ashington's streetlites are on other routes so often at the moment they may as well remove the route branding from them anyway. I also wouldn't want to be restricted to 50 mph on a late running service going up or down the A1. It could be somewhat frustrating.
