There's need for a decker on all 3 of the X14 boards, all 3 are hammered with school loads or peak runs to town.
0645 to Thropton gets a full load on the way south for Morpeth schools.
0639 from Thropton is often full by Loansdean, and later on in the day does the 1545 short which is now rammed too.
The third bus now comes off the 0725 X15 from Berwick, which brings a bus full of school kids into Alnwick in the morning.
I think there might be one X20 board which could get by with a saloon, but for ease of allocation it's best to have them all decker.
