But it hasn't. You can't negotiate with bus operators. You get what you're given. Whether you like it or not.
Durham, Darlington and Barnard Castle are the destinations from this new hub in Bishop.
That scenario I've given is the situation you're now in.
Not too dissimilar to the one people in Annfield Plain or Catchgate could find themselves in if the rumours are true.
Mind, I'm not sure whether they're getting any new destinations at all. You're quite lucky!
