The previous 99 Express (Nonstop) experiment was inefficient use of resource as it evidently resulted in many semi-empty buses. Translink had a fixed schedule for 99 Express, that was very difficult to match the collective behaviors of when students arrive or leave (and each weekday is different as well, apparently Wednesday was always most busy), buses could be either packed full or relatively empty.
