Bit like the Arriva Coastliner 306/308, only serves Whitley Bay-Blyth on the coast.
Coast & Castles X15 never touched the coast, whereas the X18 follows the coast from Amble onwards.
Its called Coaster as it serves the coastal towns of North Shields, Whitley Bay & Tynemouth. I don't think CityLink would cut the mustard as that seems to be for cross-city links.
