Going to durham uni just to have a dig at arriva!!!!, you obviously need to open your eyes at arriva services X1 crook-bishop-darlington was only introduced because gne seen an opportunity to quicken the then current 1/1B, now what has arriva done when the ok1 was withdrawn from crook?, withdrew the 1/1B from crook. service 6 extended around woodhouse estate every 12mins because everybody was using the jsb9 or ok18 and from durham to framwellgate moor to get passengers off the X21 going to college. Service 51 from haymarket to take passengers off the 307. How many routes do gne have to durham?, think they maybe trying to get folk out of cars and on to buses?
I don't think the X7 will fail, but I think the X84/X85 will!
And yeah, the 51 takes ALL of the passengers from Haymarket and St Mary's Place. I saw a Solo leaving full on Saturday.
