I've often wondered how they chose the service numbers beyond those that were direct changes from 102 ->2 etc.  So for example, why make a 32 but no 30, or 31 at the time.  And why the 9 was never used until the South Hylton service in Stagecoach days etc.

Busways initially operated a 17 that became 17A/17B then back to 17.  The good old days with a proper network of services instead of a few high frequency routes and little else.

Can you remember service 26 from town end farm areas to Seaburn only used to run Sundays only on the summer months and during one year Busways put on a service 26 from Sunderland to Seaburn camp then the summer Sunday service 26 got renumbered to a 36
