No doubt the X30's and X70's will follow at a later time once driver numbers are stable but if both groups of services are eventually made standalone, it would make sense given the changeover mileage to operate the X30/X31 out of CLS rather than Hownsgill.
You weren’t right about the 47, no.
To nip this in the bud as I’m getting tired of seeing posts like this every day… It’s also ludicrous to suggest that Chester-le-Street would operate the X30/X31. It would introduce another new vehicle type into Chester-le-Street’s fleet (the X21 isn’t going to be operated by E400s - again, let’s nip that in the bud), it would introduce more remote reliefs at Chester-le-Street, and would involve a lot of route learning cost, for absolutely no benefit. The X30/1 work fine as they are from Consett.
