How much is a single and return between Sacriston and Chester-le-Street? Can Go North East tickets be purchased on the 725? Ticket acceptance is little use if a ticket needs to be purchased to access Go North East, although I know the X20 and 16/16A operate along the route.

GNE tickets are accepted however they cannot be purchased on board the 725.
(22 Jul 2022, 6:30 pm)OrangeArrow49 wrote Yes, I meant Solo SR. For some reason I was expecting a double decker, the 25 is a mix of single and double decker buses. Definitely wasn't expecting a Solo SR.Contract is for a minimum of 25 seats, it doesn't require a double decker with the main reason GNE using them on the 25 being interworking with scholars.
That's what I thought.
