There's more than enough buses between A and B from both bus stations, so there's no reason why it couldn't work. It'd be a obscene to see the four services you've mentioned receive excessive investment, over more deserving services in other parts of the network, just because Newcastle have opted for their car-favouring emissions scheme.

Now this is a good idea. I use the 25 almost every day, on weekdays as it gets me to school, and on weekends to get me into Gateshead/Newcastle for spotting. From Gateshead there is a collosal number of buses that go to Newcastle, and it wouldnt hurt to terminate one of them at Gateshead.
