I typically start at one end (ie Consett), jump off at a location to get a photo on the other side, and wait for the next bus to go further along the route, repeating the process until I'm at the other end (ie Sunderland).
It's pleasant enough doing that when it's warm, if you're the type who enjoys getting photos in random locations, but awful trying to do it when it's cold.
Probably would have been better if I hadn't decided to start an hour later, 6014's failure on the 15 pushed me back a further 30 minutes and resulted in one of my planned photo spots being dropped as the 15A doesn't head along the 78 route into Consett. Also most of the ones I have been on today have been slightly late as there is temporary lights everywhere it seems so this has caused more problems.
Not been brilliant today but at least I have made the effort to get photos in some slightly different places, sick of viewing photos of them in Chester-le-Street now, although I took some here too.
Will probably revist some of the spots in the summer.
