At least there are regular bus services stopping on Sunderland road now, though, unlike 20 years ago, when the prevailing T&W PTE thought was that bus services should not directly compete with the metro at all.
I'm on my phone so can't really check dates and if they started after de-reg - but the 51/52 went along Sunderland Road.
There was also the Bill Quay service (60?) that went along there.
All went to/from Gateshead and Heworth.
Before the Metro, I am sure the 93/94 travelled along Sunderland Road, using Carlise Street.
