The more you look at it, the less they seem to care about the X20. Little promotion, the worst possible allocation, no late/Sunday services, I can go on.
7453-56 are perfect for this, how can't they see that! (and before the 'Ashington can't be trusted' response that was given last time, make Ashington be trusted, get them in line, if they really are that bad.)
They are absolutely useless at promoting services. I complained via their Facebook page about the Alnmouth station services and how they should promote the service more.
In the REVISED edition of the 6th September 2015 timetable (which corrected the mistake of buses serving Hawthorn Road in Ashington), little sheets of paper were inserted into the timetable advertising the new extension to the service!
The Revised edition was delivered to Ashington in early-October, pretty disgraceful really.
Also the fact that they promote a service which uses 15-year old deckers...yeah, I'm going to be attracted to this service not the X18......
