This is speculation but I'm not sure why the 55 will be dropped. More likely the X1 extensions are going to replace the 202. The route South of Easington Lane just duplicates the 55 and doesn't really offer anything special and the the rest of the links are kept with the 265 going Easterly. Least the X1 would offer direct buses to Newcastle from Murton and South Hetton instead.
Not sure how interworking would work though as I know the 202/204/208/265 all work together.
