With GNE, if a trunk route (21, X1, 56) or group of routes (10's, Cobalts) running on exact common sections heading to a common terminus are running late, they can be regulated with passengers transfering on one behind or that plus passengers heading to terminus taken "non stop".if the arriva 44 to town was late it always took me to the place i wanted to go - not kicking me off a regent centre to change to another bus so it can do a quick turn around..... the number of times ive been told to alight a GNE bus at gateshead ( all had Newcastle as destination) and been made to get on another one.... got to be 20-30 time and once waited 15 minutes for a Newcastle service to come cause the driver lett 3 buses toward tome pull out.
Arriva still has to rely on driver discretion for that to happen.
