Talking of the X66. Hearing rumours this morning that a re-jig of the Q1/Q2, will see the X66 extended to Wrekenton.
Renumbered the 66/66A and branded 'The Gateshead Wanderer', it will operate all stops between Ikea and Gateshead. The 66 will operate the clockwise loop to Heworth. 66A anti-clockwise.
The Q1 will still operate, but between Gateshead and Wrekenton, it will operate in sync with the 1 and have slight variations to the 1.
Operating along Durham Road it will then go via Belle Vue Bank, Saltwell Road, Chowdene Bank, Durham Road, Harlow Green, the Angel and Long Bank.
New links will be opened up to residents of southern Gateshead as a result of these changes.
