Especially in Hexham I wonder if GNE could maybe come to an agreement with locals who may own tractors to help them recover buses.

In a word no - Too many legalities, and too much damage could be caused by trying to improperly pull or tow a bus without knowledge, and that's even before you get to trying to move the weight of bus with a tractor or similar - it's just a non-starter in every aspect.  Companies like Alpha make it look easy because they know what they're doing, not because it is simple matter of hooking up and pulling away.
