Teaches me to only read the first few letters of the word.

So the 56 is being replaced by the x6, why have they done that for. Can't see what was wrong with the 56 except sometimes it's not always on time. I use this bus quite a lot and don't know why it's only hourly to north shields now. So will it terminate at Killingworth bus station then?

1 trip an hour will termiante at Killingworth and 1 will extend to North Shields.

So this means it will go from being half hourly, and down to hourly to north shields? What they done that for? And does the route stay the same then?

Just wait and see. I know as much as everyone else. Only that it is mentioned on the X6 registration 'Half Hourly' to Killingworth and 'Hourly' to North Shields.

You notice it also says via Whitley Bay which of course the 56 does not go there now. Pity people living in Backworth or Shiremoor if they want to go to North Shields and have to travel via Whitley Bay.

Some small notes, nothing too specific, on the Arriva changes in September -
