Looking at the timetable I can't work out how they work. I think it might be the 0926 arrival in Hexham running to Carlisle to run the 1107 back to Newcastle. I'm not sure what would do the 0927 short back to Newcastle though, possibly one off a scholars working?
The word on the street is that the bus that arrives at Hexham at 9.26 then runs light to Carlisle, meanwhile a bus runs empty from Newcastle to Hexham to run the journey at 9.27 from Hexham to Newcastle. Good eh !
There's comments about poor reliability on the ANE Facebook page already on the revised timetable to improve reliability introduced a couple of days ago - not good.
