Ye, that's a shame but i think they want the direct link - nothing else, that's what everyone wants, not like the FAB 56 when it takes about 100 years to go to Newcastle.
45 minutes isn't bad, that's quite fast, just hope they put peak time traffic down as timings too!
Hylton Bridge seems to be getting worse during peaks. I lose 15mins regularly stuck in it.
The X1 has similar timings between Houghton and Tyneside. Outside of peaks it is achievable. Inside - not a chance.
