Sometimes however the numbers can be misleading. The 308 is faster than all the MAX buses Newcastle to Blyth
BIB: No it's not - 308 is timed for 1 hour Blyth-Newcastle, 5 minutes slower than the X7/X9/X11 and 7 minutes slower than the X10. The only one it is quicker than is the X8 (1 hour 8 minutes). 308 actually takes 1 hour 3 minutes Blyth to Newcastle.
