(01 Jul 2016, 10:37 pm)Malarkey Scratching my head wondering why you would observe Heworth/Gateshead but miss out Newcastle City Centre, where by which most of the potential passengers will get on to go to and from Morpeth, really dont see any passengers wanting to do the full route mind, and would be better off being a two separate services.

(03 Jul 2016, 4:15 pm)Adrian That X6 is hardly an express though Adam. I reckon you're looking at close to 2 hours end to end.
Your X8 would work better if it ran via the A184, A194 and then A1 to junction 60 from Heworth, and didn't bother with Norton and Stockton. You could instead serve Rushyford, Newton Aycliffe, Aycliffe Village and into Darlington.

Probably in the Bygone thread but how long did the 722/723 used to take from Darlington to Newcastle? I'm guessing a fairly long whack.
Anyway my suggestion(s) for the X22
Current route then Retail World - Metrocentre ( a la 937 workings)
Or change if the 23 and run it the old 183 route, restoring the link for large parts of Harlow Green & Low Fell to the Metrocentre. (You'll still be able to flog purple day tickets to keep it commercially rewarding)
