Then just allocate all the Pulsars to the 1 / 2 / X8 / X9 which are quieter. There's quite often a Pulsar on the 5pm runs aswell lately (tonight being one).

The X7 run I was on about was the morning school time journey with 1505 on which 4 students were refused due to being full, arriva done no favours to the new passengers that would have started at the school the X7 serves in deleval should really look at bringing back the school duplicates between Blyth and deleval (obviously attempting to use a decker). But as a whole I agree that the X7 is in need of deckers as it does seem to be busy as a whole at peak times and does often seem to get fully/close to fully seated during peak times on a pulsar and deffinately seems busier than the X8/9 from what I've observed, busiest I've seem an X8 is half, give or take abit, of the seated capacity on a pulsar, it would best be X9/8 interworking and X7 being stand alone with deckers.
