Would make more sense having say Stagecoach operate that service where they’ve got 2 depots in Newcastle, one in Sunderland for say if they break down on A19 or likes of Dalton Park and a one in Stockton for breakdowns in and around them areas.
Since things were consolidated to riverside, standards and reliability on most routes have fallen off a cliff. Deptford and Washington seem to do ok but perhaps they are far enough away to not be impacted by riversides ineptness.
If they invested as much in engineering as they did in social media we’d be good. Pointless trying to attract passengers when your base product is shite
