That's just how I look at it and it makes sense in my eyes - but my way of looking at it might be confusing to others.

Since Go North East published the changes, there has always been discrepancies with regards to the actual terminus of the route, though. Whilst the timetable lists Harraton as the terminus point, the stop before it (Rickleton) is listed as a timing point so the driver will wait here if he's early instead of waiting time at the terminus.
The details on the website state:
Buses will run from Rickleton to Concord via Harraton, Wear Industrial Estate, Ayton, Lambton, Washington Galleries, Biddick, Barmston Waskerley Road & Hertburn Industrial Estate. In the opposite direction, buses will run from Concord to Birtley Northside via Hertburn Industrial Estate, Barmston Waskerley Road, Biddick, Washington Galleries, Lambton, Ayton, Barley Mow, Portobello, Portmeads and Birtley Centre.
So in this instance, Rickleton is given as the terminus.
