Was in Blyth between 11-12:30 and saw 3x 308's 2x X10 and 1x X11.

Ofcourse I only saw buses entering / leaving the town centre so may have got busier on route but from what I saw no more than 5 people got on each service at the bus station. I do agree that this was partly to do with marketing. There were no signs up in the bus station advising on boxing day services and no timetables or anything like that for people that didn't know.
