(11 Jan 2015, 1:03 pm)Dan wrote As much as I would like to see the Stagecoach Gold brand implemented in the North East, I don't think the X34 is that good a performer to justify being the first route in the North East to be converted to this specification...
Outside of peak times, from what I have seen, the X34 often carries very few people (and those who are on-board are typically older people rather than adult single/return fares). Of course, during peak times and at Christmas, completely different story...
I don't know much about Gold specification, but could the 39/40 (I hope I got that right, that ones that go to Walker and Wallsend) not do with Gold?
