If they live closer to these potential X10 stops, than they do the station.X10 could trial it, from Seaham Mill Inn, and see what passenger numbers are like but advertise it. I can see it being cheaper than the train (advertise the fares) - I think it could do a lot of good.
If they don't, do you get a bus to those stops or do you get a bus to the station? Or do you just drive to wherever you want to be?
I firmly believe GNE need to do something about the stations and work to complement the trains. Not compete against them.
Seaham is a case in point, with the 71 stopping within spitting distance of the station, but it not being co-ordinated at all.
There's many others within walking distance and there's absolutely no integration or partnership working at all from what I can see.
