Drivers will tell you that the sunday X30/6 cycle is better than the - 'northerns', or now 'the nameless red weekday bus allocation'.
The 6s should run onto X31 and X30. Breaks up driver shifts and allows consett shifts and stanley shifts stay seperate. You could comfortably be in hours after running two 6/X30/1 cycles, but you can only run one 6/X70/1 cycle before needing a break. Daytime northern loads are low as is, so it wouldn't hurt to just switch the allocations, much like they were with the west durham swift branding.
Drivers really aren't looking forward to the streetlites at stanley. It will leave the only full length single decks at stanley being streetlites and omnicities. The citaros are apparently very easy to drive compared to the heavy steering of the streetlites.
Nobody is sure whether 5337/8 are also going to where-ever they are going, either.
We shall see.
