(26 Apr 2016, 11:13 am)G-CPTN How does the accounting for this arrangement work?
Are estimates made of how many pax use the bus?
Do the bus drivers 'count' how many?
Is it 'written off'?
(26 Apr 2016, 11:19 am)Dan Bus operators are paid by the hour rather than by how many Metro passengers are carried.
(26 Apr 2016, 11:45 am)BJ10VUS Do you pick which routes accept tickets? For example, the X9, X10 and X36 also cover Heworth to Newcastle Monument, but don't usually take Metro passengers.

(26 Apr 2016, 11:50 am)Dan I believe Metro's Control Room pick the services which accept tickets.
They'll pick the most frequent service of the lot, as I think it would incur an additional cost per hour if they wanted to accept tickets on multiple services.

Does anyone know what the issues are with the Metro trains? I used the Metro yesterday and there was delays due to not enough available trains. It's really starting to put me off using the Metro now; to the point I'd rather drive to Newcastle to see friends and not drink.

(01 May 2016, 10:12 am)DavidSBrough Nexus/DB found a problem with a number of the metro trains doors so had to take them out of service to sort the problem so that's why there's a shortage of trains.

Its getting to the point where people are getting really angry, its getting horrdendous.
Getting a bloody joke now, this was off a hour ago:
Trains are running to all destinations, but may be busier than normal due to some peak services being cancelled between Pelaw and Monkseaton/Regent Centre, due to a shortage of available trains. We sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Major delays Sth Gosforth to North Shields. Just done the line and all trains are rammed. I advise travelling on 900 via Wallsend.
Wouldn't bother using the metro.
