(27 Aug 2016, 8:22 am)Jamie M 88 was moved to Riverside not long ago because of the issues thrown up with it being Washington run.
If X1 was going to be moved, I'd say to Riverside because deptford is even further away. It's like moving 21 to be Stanley run instead of CLS.
The 9 is a similar story, it doesn't go too near to Washington.
This is nothing but my opinion, but none of this would make much sense to me.
Would it not more more sense to shift the 50, X1 and 4 to Chester Le Street? But there again, space is a big issue though. Wonder how the dead mileage would be covered though. The old X2 service could make a comeback and have it inter working with the X1 on a 20 minute frequency (10 minutes combined between Galleries and Newcastle) with changeovers happening at Park Lane.
