We have probably seen it happen umpteen times, but I never thought about it.
With regard to the 21 and 56, I wonder how many passengers use them as local services versus a distance service?
If the two services were split in two (with an overlap):
21 Newcastle - Chester every 10mins
22 Birtley - Durham every 10mins
x21 Newcastle - Bishop every half hour.
55 Newcastle - Nissan/A19 every 10mins
56 Concord - Sunderland every 10mins
x56 Newcastle - Sunderland every half hour.
Probably best not to split these routes because there are people who do the full route.
