Fictional Service Ideas - ASX_Terranova - 21 Dec 2021 I've been holding on to these suggestions for a while but i think these might gain a few passengers. Also, I originally designed these timetables for a fictional independent I was going create. https://asxterranova.home.blog/2021/12/21/22a-22c-23a-23c-timetables/ RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - Train8261 - 21 Dec 2021 (21 Dec 2021, 12:12 pm)ASX_Terranova wrote I've been holding on to these suggestions for a while but i think these might gain a few passengers.Just had a quick read.

I would also change the Name Washington 5's to Washington 3's. And there is already a 5. However for the 22/23 etc. I would be bettter (although this is never happening to name them) 51,52,53,54 etc to complement it with the 50 & 56.

Just ignore the number 5, it was designed for an independent.

X23 - Durham - university hospital - new college - sacriston crossroads - edmondsley crossroads - craghead punch bowl - south Stanley st Stephens church - Stanley bus station - tanfield railway - Sunniside front street - whickham front street (dockendale lane) - metrocentre This would run non stop between each of the stops listed above with a journey time of roughly 50 minutes allowing for an hourly service with a PVR of 2. Service would be timed with the x22 to provide a half hourly service between Durham and metrocentre. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - OrangeArrow49 - 27 Dec 2021 12B service from Benton - Fenham - Denton Burn - Blaydon - Metrocentre, running hourly. 674 service from Newcastle Central Station - Cowgate - Slatyford - Denton Burn - Heddon on the Wall - Corbridge - Hexham, running hourly. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - ASX_Terranova - 27 Dec 2021 This is my idea for merging The GNE 26 with SNE Shields 18.

Clearly there's an interest in them and discussing them, but that should be away from the operator threads. RE: Fictional Service Ideas - ASX_Terranova - 28 Dec 2021 I would like to see any operator have a crack at another service between Washington Galleries and Newcastle. Anybody got any decent suggestions other than whats in the PDF. RE: Fictional Service Ideas - MurdnunoC - 01 Jan 2022 As a fictional service idea I think I would like a see a government service introduced where the cost of your gas and electricity were determined by the level of income you receive. Progressive pricing could reduce the financial burden placed upon poorer households and help to reduce fuel poverty.

RE: Fictional Service Ideas - ASX_Terranova - 10 Jan 2022 I'm putting this here because I don't think GNE would even consider this, but it was fun to design anyway. I'm thinking of creating a non big three suggestions portfolio and this is going in there at some point.
