With the q1/q2, they've already curtailed it at Gateshead on evenings anyway, which in my opinion makes a bit of a mockery of the Quaylink branding. How can the brand be named after a place that the route doesn't even serve all of the time?

Aye, was genuinely surprised to see that the Q1/Q2 didn't bother crossing the river on a night, when I was in the town a few weeks back.
Or, there wasn't a service (like the 53/54) which was diverted down to the Quayside/Sage to fill the gaps.
The Q3 doesn't cover enough of the town and obviously doesn't touch the Gateshead Quays at all.
Imagine stopping at one of the many hotels on the Quayside and on getting off the train at Newcastle, finding you have to get a taxi down or walk (with bags)?

Sure that hill is getting steeper.
I blame global warming.
