However, if ticketing & other data showed the demand to and from Newcastle didn't really exist, it wouldn't be a bad shout.
Aye I was thinking that but possibly could divert the X20 along there similar to the old X25/X26 and give them a proper express hourly or the slow 52 every 30 minutes / hourly evening (better than nothing which what they're getting).
I know it'll add time to the X20 but it's very quiet most the time anyway tbh.
