Never heard anyone moan about the X18. I can easily sit on that for 4 hours.
I probably could handle the full X18 route in one go if I wanted to although I personally would rather have a few stops en-route, often do this when I head to Scarborough on the X93 with a 30 minute break at Whitby on the way to Scarborough. At least the X18 would be a intresting route to do in one go, doubt that the 11 would have the same appeal. I often used to do full journeys on the Arriva 24 Durham - Sunderland when something decent was allocated, journey time was about 85 minutes.
