They're not express routes though so it just dilutes the point of an express service. My idea is based purely on the route type rather than putting letters on numbers and which ones you like more etc. Same applies with Arriva with the 306, 308, X7, X8 and X9 which aren't really express either.

The express network really is the
Arriva: 685, X10, X11, X12, X14, X15, X18, X20, X21, X22 
GNE: X1, X6, X10, X20, X21, X30, X31, X66 
SNE: 100, X24, X34, X63, X77, X78, X79, X82

I'm undecided on the SNE X47, X87, X88 as even known they're express they'd be better branded under the NewcastleCity brand imo.
