(04 Aug 2015, 10:54 pm)R852 PRG Are you sure? I recall being told it was an amalgamation of some services. 721 was Chester-le-Street - Birtley - Wrekenton - Gateshead - Newcastle according to the Bygone Era.

(05 Aug 2015, 9:28 am)Andreos1 I can. Sure it went via Drum and North Lodge at one point too.
Memory is hazy here, but an independent (Cousins?) had it in the early 90's. It seemed to come and go until GNE took it on in the early 2000's.
