(29 Dec 2021, 2:43 pm)Andreos1 Follingsby Park is one to take advantage of and it's a good thing they've started serving it. It's just a shame that those regulars on the 4 are affected by a diversion and see longer journeys as a result.

You've made your views on the 'hub and spoke' model clear, and suggested that your preference would be to offer direct services. Go North East has diverted an existing service (adding 1 PVR) to serve Follingsby Park, which enables direct journeys to be made from Houghton-le-Spring and Washington, as well as using Heworth as a hub.

To use the same amount of resource (1 PVR) without diverting service 4, you'd only be running short hops between Follingsby and Heworth - surrendering those direct links to Houghton-le-Spring and Washington.

I think diverting service 4 was the correct decision to make.
