The more aged folks (and also some younguns!) at shields have difficulty distinguishing between a blue/purple bus showing "Durham" as the destination, when there's also a similarly coloured number (which can be easily transposed in some peoples minds...)
Perhaps moreso when it's a red spares allocation?

Same could be said for 309/310, 58 & 56 at market Street, the Q1 & 58 at gateshead. Personally I don't see how people get confused as it's not as if they are even the same type of bus. Think people should look at the route number if in doubt, it is clear enough....
When the 921 stopped at the same stand at heworth as the X10, people still got on the 921 expecting to go to Middlesbrough. Needless to say they weren't happy when they were told they couldn't get off until Rainton
