It looks like:
680 - Hexham - Acomb – Bellingham
683 - Hexham BS-Collingwood Dr-White Cross-RS
684 - Hexham BS-QEHS
686 - Hexham - Corbridge - Ovington – Wylam – Prudhoe
688 - Hexham – Allendale – Allenheads
689 - Hexham-Consett
X84, X85 - Newbrough - Hexham - Newcastle
No idea on frequencies. can't work them out from that PDF.
Least its better connections for those in Newbrough and if the rumours about the 6 SIDI mercs are correct about going on to this route; it be hell of an upgrade.
When I lived in Burnopfield a few years back, I thought that merging the X88 & X43 would be good idea and have one express service straight through.........obviously not really feasible now
