For example, the 34 used to have Washington Street Shuttle vehicles from the M3 on an evening and Sunday for a long time, as the arrival/departure times coincided at Chester. Now it appears the Waggonway works the 34 and the Lambton Worm vehicles are kept indoors.
GNE also, not sure whether they still do on a Sunday operate the 8 Between Washington Galleries and Chester le Street using Washington Street Shuttle MPD's. Rarely out on a Sunday so I don't if they still operate this service or not.
