There's a few 43/44/45/47 boards at Ashington btw. 7557/7558/7560/7562 are meant to be on it.
For the most part, no. I live on the route and every time I've gone to catch one recently, it's turned up pretty much on time. Looking at Bustimes there seems to have been at most 2 shifts missing this week per day on the 43/44/45 but, since they all interwork now, it's not hitting any route particularly hard.
They were given 6 buses (7553/4/7/8/60/2) for 4 boards, but realistically they'll just be allocated any E400.
