One thing that is quite strange, now GCT have taken back over the evening/Sunday routes in North Tyneside but are operating at a much higher frequency than Monday-Saturday day times.

The 11 is two hourly Monday-Saturday day time, yet half hourly evenings and Sunday. The 19 and 41 are hourly Monday-Saturday daytime, yet half hourly evenings and Sundays,

You'd think Nexus would maybe follow this, potentially saving a bit of cash.
