I do wonder what the plan is if the southbound journey hits bus full at Washington, for example. Do they dupe it for potential punters at Billingham and Peterlee? I don't see it as an issue if it gets bus full at Billingham, as realistically folk in Middlesbrough can just get the X93, but north of that it could get awkward.
This sounds like a wonderful problem to have - let's hope Go North East do have to tackle such an issue (in reality, they probably won't!)
