1 runs between Ashington and Blyth - an Arriva service.

434 doesn't serve Blyth because it was cut back to provide a more frequent service for those in Cambois and North Blyth, the only places it was intended to benefit. When the 30 and 34 merged it became Linton to Bedlington Station, with a frequency reduction so it used one bus instead of the previous two from Arriva/Phoenix.

The main purpose of the 434 is to connect the four villages of Linton, Cambois, North Blyth and West Sleekburn to amenities in Ashington. It's not really for end-to-end journeys.
