How does the East Gateshead Orbit interwork,do they both change in Newcastle,as ive only ever seen the 52 turn into the 51,but not the other way round

Other than 718/720 did Diamond (Hammell) operate anything else?
Is the GNE Durham Diamond Reflecting this in any way?

I must say (Not GNE's Fault) there has been a tone of TVT & Consett (X45/X46 Inparticular) & Durham buses cancelled due to late operation and I think they are only going to get worse.

So im a little confused as to what the 22 is doing during the works at the bottom of Rosehill bank,sometimes they divert along Archer Street,and other times it does its normal route,is it drivers choice wether they want to divert or not,i saw GNE's Coaster do it today so genuinely dont have a clue whats going on

Used the 41A for the 1st time today,and it was actually quite full,makes me wonder why it was hashed up in the 1st place

Anyone know how busy these have been, could we see the X1 Extended to Seaham, to provide more connections from Seaham to terminate, providing connections to Newcastle like there used to be.

I wonder how they are gonna brand the CountryRanger with the place names.
will it be like the C&C and 8/78 Branded Lime (Not separated one) where they just mix the 8/78 places up
or will it be like the Green Arrow with the 96 on one side and the 97 on the other
