Ah okay, then perhaps run the X21 that is used by those kids 5 minutes earlier from Ashington, adding more time into the timetable, and have it leaving Bedlington Station at the time it is currently meant to.
Might not have been worthwhile running that bus? If the school kids preferred getting the X21 so they could use WiFi etc. I don't think the 821 ran in the afternoon either, so if they were unsure as to whether they could use 821 returns on the X21, they may just go with the safe option.
