I think the Blue Base Livery alone may Indicate that the Branding could have something to do with the River Wear/Tyne perhaps, But there are other Posibilities from my point of view which are as Follows
- WheyAye50 gets an Increased Frequency to Every 20 Minutes
- X30/X31 Under a New Brand
- 9 Under a New Brand
- Extra Spare for the Coaster
5255-60 were always down to be repainted blue for service 50.
There are six buses at present, there will be six buses post-upgrade.
