Maybe it’s because the sky is blue and the bus passes under the sky?

If it was lighter blue, I'd say yes. But with that shade of blue, I reckon it's more about the Metro Centre.

If you think about it, the X22 & X66 have the same shade of blue and they both serve the Metro Centre. Obviously the Tyne Valley Ten is GNE's major service from Newcastle to the Metro Centre.

From Hexham & Corbridge, perhaps they're thinking of the following too.....
- XLines = Fast to Newcastle
- Tyne Valley Ten = Links to the Tyne Valley and Metro Centre
