Was just an idea to try and promote people going from Seaham to Sunderland to use the express services and it seemed a place to send it since their buses would be down from 5 an hour to 3 an hour rather than them using the 60 so the 60 is for people doing intermediate journeys instead.
The Seaham to Sunderland journey isn't that long in reality either. There's already a half hourly express service that isn't used much anyways, just look at how long it kept it's X-Lines spec Solos.
Also in response to other people's posts, it's absolutely laughable that people don't see South Shields to Sunderland as being a type of service people use. Stagecoach have 3 services and the 20 being every 12 minutes shows how used it is, and it is, even during a lockdown.
