You can have a look at that 1984 photo by clicking it and loading the 1984 page - if you click it on that page, you'll be re-directed to Flickr.

Got it.

Turns out it was Durham, not Gateshead.

Added a few screenshots just to show that the flickr image/link isn't too obvious.

Even more convinced the Big Orange is prior to 1991 after clicking the link.
Haven't checked timetables to see when the 64 stopped running via Gateshead, but I am sure those ticket machines (Setright?) had gone by then. 
Someone else may be able to double check/confirm.
