If he used the cashing in machines as a reason not to accept the money, then fare enough.
He didn't and essentially went against company policy by initially refusing to accept it.
The fact he stated the money wasn't legal tender, but was quite happy to see an oap wander round with 'pretendy money' after doing the swap, doesn't sit quite right with me either.
I'm not sure - perhaps tyresmoke and our Go North East drivers can help with that one.
Riverside's cashing in machines are the ones shown below:

Go North East's NEW Bus Depot: Riverside, Dunston, Gateshead - Work in progress by danielgrahamm, on FlickrI'd presume that GNE have the same type across all of their depots to make things a little simpler, but again, one to be confirmed by a driver at another depot besides Riverside.
