Amazingly the 56 runs at exactly the same time aswell which is in walking distance and serves the same places ie. Wrekenton and the top end of Sheriff Hill so there's the 21, 25 and 56 all running 5 minutes apart. Some would say it's a co-incidence but it wouldn't surprise me if it's delibrate. 'We tried to run additional services on the 25 in the evening but due to low usage we are now withdrawing them.'

Even worse!
With the 21, 25 & 28B each hourly they should have scheduled an even 20 minute frequency.
The cynic in me agrees that they will be saying exactly that about the evening 25 after a few weeks.
