Small thing I've noticed with the North Tyneside one is that it is split into two parts of the route during the day

When operators are fully staffed, then its a nice thing to do. But I can't help but feel some current rank and file drivers will be rather annoyed seeing this go ahead when they are probably being asked every day to do overtime to cover bread and butter service work. It's quite easily the sort of thing you could see a Northen Echo headline about.
Isn't it normally office staff that drives the Santa bus, sure that was the case last year.

SB18 - this specific route looks like the yellow line on the metro or at least closley resembles it. Albeit in the wrong location.
How are these Santa bus routes decided upon? Benwell isn't traditionally GNE but gets a Santa bus, yet Kingston Park has the 42A, but no Santa bus and there is the 74 in Cowgate, Slatyford and Westerhope, but no Santa bus.
