Also changing is the Elton/Longnewton end - 87A will now leave Longnewton and operate via the A66 rather than turning to run via Elton. Replacing that will be the 87B, the two services alternating each hour (the 1300 87B will no run on a Saturday) throughout the day. Due to the low bridge under the A66 on Bowesfield Lane, no double deckers can be used on the service, reducing the operating pool to SPD V210ERG, Vario T445WWT and the 2 B10Ms. V210 is to operate the first day of service.

Stagecarriage really are out to make themselves bankrupt...

Pull off Yarm Road/Richardson Road area where passengers are plently, yet go via Bowesfield where passengers are not... makes sense!

Nice to know they are also running this without being actually registered. Really dodgy outfit.

Not their problems - the service is now entirely tendered, and was only awarded last Tuesday. A registration has been sent to VOSA but hasn't been accepted yet, as such it was free on Saturday.

So is it still free today then? All the scholars on for nothing?
