Sadly I agree with you there, it normally has a few passengers going into town say between 10 and 12 and coming out of town at 3 or 4 but other than that it is normally empty between Walllsend and Newcastle which is a shame as it's quicker. Even when the 11 is in front of the 1 or 22 people still seem to wait for the 1 or 22...

Don't see what the need was, reliability is fine but who on earth goes directly from newcastle to metrocentre using that route? The only system of gateshead to metrecentre as 96 was good. It's an unneeded service on the whole but let's see if it can mature within a couple of months given how poor the advertising was.
How is it a mix between the 27 and 310? And also it's not a unneeded service because without it places like Willington Quay, East Howdon, Knightside Gardens etc. would be left without a service unless you mean bring back the 17/96?
