Service 26 went to the forge.
There should be some timetables in the bygone era on the site .

In the Busways era, there was supposed to be a new service 8 but last I heard it got shelved, if I remember correctly but could be wrong that it was going to be a minibus operation from Sunderland to Carley Hill via Southwick

I remember the George Bell 125 and 17, they ran quite a peculiar route via Gilley Law and Silksworth. Don't think it even lasted a year before it was re-routed and renumbered 25.
Also didn't Favourite run an 8 with the 9 and 9A?
