(14 Jul 2022, 1:00 pm)F114TML wrote Not a conventional suggestion but would there be much of a market for later evening runs leaving Newcastle on the X10, even if they only went as far as Peterlee?I would question if after 7PM it really needs to serve Dalton Park as well as all shops are closed by then and it really only the cinema and McDonald’s and Morrisons still open and it’s unlikely anyone from Newcastle or Middlesbrough will be going though to watch a movie or get the weekly shopping especially at that time.
I'm suggesting it for entirely selfish reasons - an 11pm departure I'd personally find quite useful; 8.20 last bus seems a bit rediculous to me, considering the last train is some 85 minutes later.
I think it needs splitting back into the X9 and X10 as well.
