The Northern Echo seem as confused as the passenger as the 12 doesn't go to Richmond that's X26/X27, if the 12 was heading in the opposite direction to Hurworth it would be heading towards Middleton St George which leaves from a different part of the Town Centre. By my reckoning TNE have just heard the accounts from the 14 year old and/or parents and printed it with no research into this, it's little wonder they ended up on the wrong bus.

Granted not the best just dumping a 14 year old somewhere they don't know but surely better research should have been done prior to this journey being made.

A newspaper, doing research! You must be joking.
By the time you've read the article you've already seen the ads so they don't care!

The state of the E400 that Arriva brought along to the NEbus launch was terrible. It was covered in dents, scratches, the vinyl was peeling off and it's obviously hit something bright yellow on the front corner.
There's no way GNE would have shown a bus off in that state
