A power supply will be far more useful on a 2+ hour journey than it would be on short hops between Newcastle and Ashington (less than an hour), then again, Yorkshire MAX E400's have sockets....
I think the X18 could do with NSA's as well, think I may have mentioned it before, as it is a very touristy route. Not sure what the 685 is like as I've never used it.
NSAs would be hard, most of it uses the A69, it would be worse having ones on the X85 though
