ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!
Oh, they'll happily pack the Blyth - Newcastle routes in during the peak times running them god knows how many minutes late taking peoples money YET, they'll withdraw a late service on a bus (barring any Busways registered service) that most likely sits only second to the Angel in terms of popularity and profit across the whole of the North East!
Ok, a reduction to Friday and Saturday nights only would seem sensible but come on man, even GNE still run the booze buses to Blaydon / Winlaton on a Friday and Saturday night on a route that is nowhere near the 308 in terms of profability and passenger numbers!
This is what happens when bus companies are all for profit and not for passenger needs, just like when the council has to fund the gap as the bus company can't be bothered to run not to profit evening services, council should withdraw there funding and let the passengers vent there anger towards the bus companies.
