The 687 was hourly, which was fine for the Hexham part of the route, but the Corbridge section wouldn't support the frequency.
Of course, by reducing the frequency also reduced the ridership as it wasn't 'every hour on the hour'.
I understand why the 687 was reorganised to run off the 686, but it has further reduced the regular users.
I don't know how popular the Acomb section of the 682 is, but I saw that it was reduced in frequency during the recent closure of Hexham railway bridge which meant extended journey times due to the diversion via Two Mile Cottages.
