If NPower have signed a contract that means GNE can afford to send a decker back and forth all day, then brilliant.
Even if it was a partial contribution, that enabled GNE to divert a commercial run around there - even better. GNE win twice then, with conc passes, ticket sales AND NPower's contribution, ensuring it calls into The Chilton Country Pub.
The x22 would have been ideal!
One thought I have just had, is the state of Black Boy Road in the winter and DCC's apparent reluctance in gritting their portion.
Although it has just recently been 'dressed', it wasn't too long ago that Busman101 was complaining about the state of road.

It is interesting the signs are on the Sunderland/T&W side of the bridge and is about the DCC portion.
DCC don't have any signs on their side of the bridge.
The service will be running as a private service presently. The reason it's running is the severe lack of car parking space within the npower site now that it is the only site for the North East. Peterlee will cease to exist by the end of this month so staff from across the North East will travel to Rainton. A park & ride service is the only viable option at present to acommodate the increase in staff housed within Rainton
Due to varying shift patterns not everyone starts or finishes at the same times.
