Aye, quite a few, but I do most of the bookings for anyone going for meetings, so the points soon mount up...or should I say they did until 23.59 tonight!

Possibly because trains will serve Newcastle before leaving the Main line to Sunderland?

The issue is that the map is geographically incorrect - the line which comes up from Newcastle and across to Sunderland should in fact go back down again so that the map is geographically correct. Sunderland is not situated in between Newcastle and Morpeth...

I couldn't tell you (I dropped Geography at the end of Year 9 for a reason), but I'd guess not! The map is pretty condensed down in Yorkshire, though, so I'd put it down to wishing to retain a good layout. Up north, we don't have that issue, so it comes across as a mistake.

Surely it's just for illustrative purposes though? At the same time, the X1 map shows Mount Pleasant and Fatfield Bridge between Philadelphia and Herrington Burn.

That map is for two separate routes though? If thats the case, after the place the routes divide from eachother, one route has nothing to do with the other.
