Nothing withdrawn yet, current ones aiding to increased PVR.

Because spare deckers are in short supply throughout the group, its a problem in a few regions now.

In other news, 22412 is back in service.

At moment just single deckers due to the short amount of double Deckers however maybe in the future it will change however not now and for now we will have single deckers for the PVR Increases

Just going to put it out there, I used the 16:45 X24A this evening from Sunderland to Gateshead and I have to say compared to the X24 it was awful.

In terms of reliability the service shot straight away coming out of Sunderland where it hits peak traffic on Chester Road before turning left to along onto Durham Road, the routing around Doxford International is strange one by having it observe the stop outside of Greggs where all Sunderland bound services stop before having double back on it's self to come off the business park where again it hit traffic, note only 3 people got on this

Eventually after approximately 30 minutes on the service at this point we got onto the A19 and cruised down albeit running late, we then reached Heworth where the driver who was already running late then decided to go along Sunderland Road rather than straight down the bypass, the journey took 55 minutes in total for which felt like an eternity, gueninely think SNE need to go back to the drawing board in regards to a peak time service via Doxford International.
