Service 777 Sunderland-Barley Mow-Chester-le-street, when arriving at Chester used to do the 721 to Newcastle and vice versa.
When Ok Travel was purchased , the 777 barley mow to Chester section was cancelled and the service was extended on the cancelled ok travel route 727 to Newcastle from barley mow estate.

Can remember being on a Newcastle bound 777 coming from Sunderland a few months after it changed.
The driver decided to come down Vigo Lane as usual, but didn't bother turning right in to Barley Mow.
He was convinced it went straight on turned right on to Durham Road at the Barley Mow pub.
The old-dears soon made him to turn around and go the right way.
He wasn't happy at all.
