The 12/12A ain't going to Benwell in any of our lifetimes....
That's what I meant, walk to Scotswood Bridge. Never thought of going to Hexham, but I'm not sure if the 684 will be around much longer? Benwell to Hexham also takes a while on the X84/684 unfortunately. Bus into Newcastle probably makes the most sense, but walking to Scotswood Bridge is the most direct.
Why doesn't/couldn't the 12/12A (or a new 12B) serve Benwell?
