Not if they have a Go North East connection at Sunderland to get home!
Another disadvantage to Arriva for having no connections in Sunderland... I'd argue their services would be a lot more successful if they actually had some sort of network in Sunderland - but it's pointless doing that as we've already established, because their competitors have high frequency services (i.e. mostly every 10 minutes) to just about all destinations in Sunderland.

Thanks, citaro!
Another one bites the dust perhaps? Hopefully repairable though... Sooner they leave the fleet, the better!
