It's a good job he isn't employed by the traffic commissioners, as I don't think 95% of the services he sees and/or uses depart from timing points within the bracket of one minute early to five minutes late. If the timetable is not realistic nor achievable, it is not meeting the guidelines set by the traffic commissioner and hence should be changed. Although your rhetorical question was likely to be tongue-in-cheek: it is not the responsibility of bus enthusiasts to pay for extra resources to be pumped into services to allow a timetable to be achievable.

What is Arriva's excuse for delays to service X12 on the days where there isn't disruption in the Gateshead area?
