Arriva North East: Rare & Odd Workings - September 2020

RE: Odd workings
(26 Sep 2020, 6:14 pm)Storx wrote Ah Blyth has always been like that, it's because they swap things around in Blyth to keep things on time rather than having a bus on time sitting around for 10 minutes for it's next run while the 308 is 10 minutes late coming in, they'll just send that out on the 308 instead and the late 308 goes on the X7 or whatever. Works well really rather than some rather interesting allocations. Deckers on 1, singles on the peak 308 runs after promising double figure times not to do it etc.

I was talking about the 57/57A there though, there's some random runs that Blyth seem to run. Does anyone actually know what's the pattern for the 57A is as it appears there's like 3 random runs Blyth do then Ashington do the rest. Then Sundays are different again with Blyth running 1 bus and Ashington the other.
Blyth do the nightime 57, they don't do any through the day (except Sunday).
