The TMS 235 service was Durham to Horden when United took over TMS they cancelled there 55 service and the 235 service went from Durham to Stockton then later it went to Middlesbrough the TMS 234 service was Houghton le Spring to Stockton later when united ran the service the Houghton to Peterlee section was cancelled, the 234 remained in service until fairly recently.
Thanks for the info, I remember just before TMS, TWOC got bought that service 234 did get extended from Houghton-le-spring to Sunderland via the 161 route in 1989ish as I used to get this to School at Houghton, also Favourite (Busways) did service 234 between Houghton and Peterlee section of the TMS route to compete with services against TMS.
