Can't see that happening, although I have heard about it. The only part of the route that would be left with a 30 minute frequency would be Wallsend-Rosehill which already has the Coaster and North Tyne Links every 15 minutes so there would be much point really.
Also would mean areas like Holy Cross, Hadrian Lodge, East Howdon and Willington Quay would be left with a hourly service with no alternative nearby, so wouldn't go down well!
