(25 Aug 2017, 10:24 pm)Malarkey How many elderley and disabled people on a daily basis across the country use the likes of National Express, National Holidays, Megabus, JH Coaches, Oxford Tube, Greenline, Shearings which are all coach operated?
Answer to that question is "Thousands" without any complaints, why should the X9/X10 be an exception to the above.
Go North East has just withdrawn a batch of Caetano Levantes after 9 Years on National Express, so clearly if coaches were purchased they would be allocated to the X9/X10 for quite some time.
Those are all long distance operators so hardly comparable. Some people using the x9 and X10 are only making 10-15 minute journeys.

Peterlee should be alright, albeit a tight squeeze, as National Express services use this bus station.
If ever there was a contest for the most badly designed bus station...
... Durham would win it hands down!
