You see it quite often, a 55 sitting at Houghton Church heading towards Peterlee, with some people waiting at the stop, the 55 pulls away, and an X1 pulls and the people get on that. Personally seems mad to me, even with the new Streetdecks being introduced, but I see that on multiple routes across the North East, people only ever seem to get on the frequent service, even when a less frequent service goes the same way.The exact same thing happens in Low Fell towards Newcastle. People let the 25 go past and get on a 21, even though the 25 does the exact same route and serves all the same stops. Is it just lack of awareness that the route goes where they want it to just because it doesn't have a "brand"?
