If it's getting into '638' journey time lengths, then lets go for it! Bound to be a success and become a legendary service!
Your right, I love coming up with those type of routes and people won't do the full journey - but it will link up the un-connected villages and also provide a quicker link for those towards the middle points into the Metrocentre and Newcastle.
But, taking into account those people who like a direct bus, however late it is, or however long it takes - these may just work.
Will see what others I can come up with - cos sitting in a hotel room at the bottom end of the country and a bottle of wine, can lead to tears of boredom
