RE: Go North East service levels during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic

I hadn't realised talk of Consett's allocation and cast-off's from other depots had gone on so long.
Not just Old Durham Road. They struggled on the Washington Highway too.
I'm sure I read on here that it was down to some sort of mod.
The 26/27 is fairly flat, so hoping they're managing OK on there.
