And how exactly would the driver know that if he's on the A19?

This resulted in the bus basically running incredibly early and arriving into Gateshead eventually around half an hour early.
Given this is a registered local bus service by definition, that is ridiculous. Appreciate not many will target it after Middlesbrough, but that's not the point.
I noticed it got into Gateshead very early yesterday but assumed it was just a timetable error on Bustimes. As it's a registered service, as you say, I do wonder how leaving a timing point 15-20 minutes early can be allowed? (Unless it's listed as set down only northbound, would that exempt it?)
Edit: Got the timing slightly wrong, changed to 15-20 from 30.
