Would like to see an express from Consett which stops at Metrocentre, Gateshead and Newcastle, stops where I would imagine a high frequency of passengers alight and depart, via Shotley and rowlands maybe?
Surely this defeats the purpose of an express service? Large amounts of people get on the X70/1s at most stops in the morning, so reducing the service to serve the same places but less frequently isn't exactly helpful. X70/1s are Consett to Gateshead or newcastle, 45/6s are Consett to metro or newcastle. It works fine as it is and it'll only be worse for the general if it's tampered with.
