I wonder what the X72 is like to drive? Must be a nightmare having to make two right turns in and out of Lobley Hill towards Newcastle?

X72 is just a nightmare, times are really tight and the Lobley Hill bit is a nightmare. Bus stop on the junction should not be served, additionally a stop inside the estate should be provided. Getting out on to the bank can also be a challenge. Imo the B5s are past their best and pulling out of Stanley bus station onto the roundabout can be fun if they are in electric mode, really can't wait for peak times at Sniperley roundabout once they appear on the X5/X15.
