The A19 can be very demanding at times and I can see why buses can be unreliable on the TTX. The only bus that can cope with the A19 going against DDA is the Palatine. Coaches would be far better suited despite the higher cost but, they also look newer and last longer than service buses.
Van Hool Astromegas would be Perfect of the TTX, Coped no bother up the A19 to Middlesbrough from Sunderland(Seaham), And onto Leeds, Furthermore the Astromega I got on Last Wednesday at 06:25am from Newcastle to London, was the same Vehicle I got on coming back from Leeds, Obviously that proves they can cope with the Route of the TTX with no problem at, only problem would be the Cost of 6 Vehicles.
