Your suggestion of GNE crying poverty when it comes to providing the most basic of service to a community that has no alternative, versus seemingly having a magic money tree up at Queen Street to fund 'very high spec buses' in some kind of 'takeover' of the Northumbria area.
Top marks. At least you're consistent, if nothing else.
And don't forget this is the same guy who only last week was arguing for the 62 to be diverted to serve Parkside despite that area of Seaham having a frequent 20 minute service to both Seaham and Sunderland where passengers can change onto services going elsewhere.
I guess it's alright for Parkside to have a hourly service to Dalton Park or a faster service to Sunderland but people in Catchgate or Stanley have to either switch buses to get to Metrocentre or endure a lengthier journey to Gateshead?
