It would easier to extend the 700 along that way which has been mentioned in the past.

Whereas the 35a (apart from peak times) generally runs very light to/from Rainton Bridge.
An alternative 'through' bus running with the 20a opposed to one using Npower as a terminus may work better
Yeah that is a good point, I think regarding my 238/71 Idea that could run via Rainton Bridge also going to/from Houghton and Seaham which would also create the links you proposed for the my 61/61A Idea.
