This is also noted on the route map at the foot of the Angel 21 timetable. Although the bus enters Eldon Square the route north from Gateshead and returning to Gateshead is considered a circular route.
I can honestly say that I have NEVER seen someone board the 21 at John Dobson Street to travel southbound. So, even though technically customers are allowed to board here, they don't (unless anyone here has seen it happen).
Even though it says on the timetable, I would bet that a lot of people don't actually know that Dobson Street is a bus stop they can board at, as they will just assume the 21 leaves from Eldon Square.
