Other random musings, slightly disappointed to see the demise of the 90. A Winlaton-Team Valley workers service has existed for years, normally seemed to be a few on it whenever I saw it. Admittedly pre covid.
Not so sure on the theory of advising Gateshead bound passengers from the X30/31 to change at Sunniside either. Unless things have improved since the last time I was through there, Is there even a shelter or just a stop on the main street? Having to make that connection on a cold winters morning and hoping your bus from Consett has made it through unscathed is a sure fire vote winner...
The splitting of the 12 and 12A and Winlaton is curious. Doesn't seem like 5 minutes since the 'cross Winlaton links' were being lauded as an improvement for passengers.
Though on balance, not all negative.
Be interesting if the likes of Stagecoach go for wholesale changes or continue with stability and familiarity.
