I know passengers when the 50/26 interworked at Sheilds a few of them stayed on the 26 as it turned into the 50.

But surely that's up to them to manage appropriately and make it more attractive? 

When getting to somewhere such as Central Station via the metro from Gateshead is easier and more convenient (for a vast proportion of the population that side of the river) than using a combination of buses and seeing that very little is being done about filling those gaps, then there's serious questions need asking.
