(23 Aug 2015, 10:27 am)NK53 TKT Why does the 74 not just do 74A route between Cowgate and Ponteland?
On weekdays, Stagecoach's X78 service run every 30 minutes with extras provided in the form of the X77 which I believe does a slightly different route round Darras Hall to the X78 and the X79 serves Northumbria Polices headquarters at Kirkly Hall instead of Darras Hall 2x a day so Stagecoach have the full market share.
Though on Sundays, there's only 1 X78 every 2 hours so it makes sense to run the same route on that day to run the same route and nick a few passengers from Stagecoach that would normally use Stagecoach on the Weekdays
