That's makes sense, But I think running it via Barmston etc is doable, Time to dig out the Collection of Timetables I think............Hunting 56/X1 Timetables.............Found them, Right here we go.
- It takes the X1 from Springwell to Gateshead - 13 Minutes and It takes the 56 from Springwell to Gateshead - 21 Minutes - 8 minutes Difference
- The 56 has a 6 Minute Layover Period in Newcastle Currently
- The 56 has a 8 Minute Layover Period in Sunderland Currently
- And going by your Timings ADLEnviro, The 56 which would go via Washington is 10 Minutes Quicker than the Current 56
So with those Points in mind and a bit of Maths, I would say you would have 32 Minutes to Play with on re-jiggling the Timetable of the 56, Feel free to correct if i'm wrong, so that would mean on the 56 via Washington you may have enough time to run it via Barmston etc to Washington and still be able to Maintain the Current PVR.
