West Durham Swift was for X30/X31/X70/X71 when it was removed. X30/X31 interwork at Newcastle, whilst X70/X71 interwork at Consett & Newcastle. Combined WDS PVR was 9 (5: X30/X31, 4: X70/X71). I think it was discussed that one of the two were less busy than the other two but can't remember which ones! I think these services certainly need some reliable vehicles soon, deckers or singles. Where these buses come from is another matter.
