Why keep a service going and divert away from problem areas? Cos passengers need a service and it works for the operator commercially.
If the section between Eston and The Magnet didnt work, I imagine it would have been curtailed prior to the issues with bricks and whatever else is being thrown.
Diverting the service away from the problem area, with very little (if any additional time needed) - but maintains key links...
Not sure what the issue is.
