New timetables for the X4 and the X93/X94 now online.

I too can see punctuality being an issue with the reduced layover time in Whitby, and dont personally like the diversion through Dormanstown. Ok, it only adds about 3 minutes to the journey but all these incremental extras all make a difference - when the X4 first started, it didnt even stop at all stops along the coast road.

Yes its good for people in Dormanstown, but again those people coming in from East Cleveland have to put up with a longer journey into Middlesbrough. Personally, I preferred the days when Dormanstown and Marske Estate were served by a town service. Longer distance journeys are then left to take the more direct route.

Just my opinion and you cant please everyone, but slower journeys dont attract people from their cars onto buses.

On a positive note the later evening journeys are a good thing.
