The Metro is interesting, it barely came up tbh. Whether people are conditioned to bus transfers or just put off by the reputation or difficulty of getting to Northumberland park…
A northstar contracted e200 silver link to Northumberland park incoming…
Very slow reply, I missed it, that'll be a messy one being stuck in traffic to Gateshead aswell mind.
Always a strange one Northumberland Park. It's even worse the announcements have for Cobalt and Silverlink. Wonder how many people have got off before expecting to just walk there and find it's a mile away and good luck trying to find the bus there. Mind I always feel like it should be part of the Cobalt Free Zone.
Dare I say it, it's the sort of route where autonomous pods would be ideal if they ever did come into existence tbh.
