Whether the X goes before or after the number is another strange one. I remember at one point GHA Coaches ran some 27X journeys and I thought that was strange they put the X after the number, not before. In that case they ran the 27 Knutsford to Macclesfield which doesn't follow the direct route, but decided to operate some positional moves as passenger services, following roughly the direct route and numbered them 27X. I seem to recall they even used a new service registration, so when they closed their Macclesfield outstation they cancelled the 27X, rather than revised the 27 registration.
