Go North East: Minor Service Changes August 2022

Go North East: Minor Service Changes August 2022

RE: Disruptions and driver shortages
(03 Aug 2022, 9:52 am)Adrian wrote Cancelling a service with a couple days notice is disgraceful. There may be low demand, but there'll still be some people relying on it, who barely have time to blink to find an alternative.

It does seem a daft time to do it in what would presumably be the peak demand however to be fair to GNE, how many people are realistically going to be "relying" on it as compared to those relying on X10 etc for day to day commuting.  Obviously if there was unlimited resource this would be a differnt issue but it looks like prioritisation on a 'least bad option' basis to me.  There were plenty on here commenting that the X11 shouldn't be running and focus on running core network so does seem a bit like whatever they do, they can't get a break.  Also, it's not like there is no alternative and GNE have flagged this, despite it being a local competitor's route, and provided the link to further details.  While I doubt the marginal driver resource released with make a notable difference to the current situation, this is a rare occasion where I feel the criticism of GNE is somewhat unfair.
