In one Journey on the 56 from Sunderland to Newcastle back it takes 2Hours and 8 Minutes and stops a Total of 85 Times. So as Result of Stopping this many times and the impact of the School Run/Rush Hour Traffic at Various Points of the Service is it no wonder the odd journey ends up Terminating at Gateshead due to being over 10 Minutes late, Not really worth heading into Newcastle and becoming even later as a Result.
