Just witnessed a very heated argument between a passenger and a driver.
Bloke tried to get on the 21 to Chester at the bottom of John Dobson St, driver refused saying its a drop off only. Bloke literally stormed onto the bus and started pointing at posters on the bus showing he could board and then started waving timetables at the driver. Driver stood firm and refused and started arguing with the bloke, using not so choice words
Was all a bit unprofessional and odd. Never realised you could board the Angel at John Dobson but the notices inside say you can, unless they've never been updated. I asked a driver on the way back and was grunted at.
They really are miserable sods at Chester. Anyway, can anyone confirm if you can board the Angel at John Dobson?
On the map in the timetable it says: "Passengers travelling to Gateshead, Low Fell, Birtley and Chester-le-Street can board the bus in Newcastle at the foot of John Dobson Street"
I'd suggest that, if he was only going up to Eldon Square, I can see why the driver refused travel. However, if he was wanting to travel on the journey going outwards, he would have been able to do so.
