I've seen none of those on the Stagecoach buses, and  Arriva have had service changes and have service changes coming up - are those timetables on the buses?

No but everyones banging on about how GNE haven't got them on the buses, when people are forgetting none of the other "big" companies have them either.

Feels like people are banging on about the same rubbish all the time on the forum atm

Naturally because Go North East shout about what they do well, people are more inclined to point out when things aren't as great as they're being made out to be. Arriva and Stagecoach haven't shouted about their printed literature, or indeed very much else recently, so I suspect nobody jumps on them because the expectation is that it isn't there. Go North East have, so folk are pointing out when it isn't there.

All that said; as the person responsible for the production of these paper timetable leaflets (leaving myself wide open here to get a load of criticism), I am slightly concerned that neither Adrian nor stagecoachbusdepot have seen any yet, but they are definitely in circulation with more and more following day by day. There was supposed to be a delivery of timetables into depots on Thursday which I understand was cancelled by the distribution company due to short-term staff sickness, and has been re-arranged for Monday and Tuesday.

I'm in agreement with your sentiments of some topics becoming tiresome, and not adding to any further discussion nor debate. In this instance it has just caused unnecessary conflict, but that's mainly down to the way in which it has been said.
