Although it is a stopping service I found the 308 reasonably quick from Whitley Bay to Newcastle yesterday afternoon but I do agree in having a more limited stopping service being in place and only serving major stops such as Silverlink, North Tyneside Hospital, Whitley Bay Town Centre/The Links & Seaton Sluice, You could in turn cut a journey which is currently 66 Minutes from Blyth to Newcastle down by potentially 15/20 Minutes as from looking at Google Maps it 37 minutes in a car.
