Neither Go North East nor Arriva had the resource to be able to fulfil the contract on Saturday.
Believe it's quite likely to have other operators sub-contracted in, and think Metro have permitted the use of single-decks on Saturday (unusual for a planned replacement!) Go North East potentially in line to do some standby Metro Replacements like the weekend before last.
