Nah.
I think there needs to be something different and the New Marske option could be it.
That or extending the X3A from Skelton Asda.
Struggle to see anything being spent on the 81, it barely survives as it is.
Where I think there could be mileage is an improved service between Middlesbrough & Saltburn, with perhaps a seasonal 20 minute frequency on the X4 all the way to Whitby. How you'd thread the X3s in between that I don't know, potentially just running the one an hour upto Lingdale, turning the rest at Saltburn to help pay for it.
