Say the coach is full at Heworth. Bang bus waiting at the Galleries to help with passages. This was a problem last year and never got solved with the X11 duplicate always being anywhere between 30 minutes to 1hour 45minutes behind

Where you going to get this spare driver from? I'm sure people in Sunderland will appreciate having more cancelled boards because there might be more than a bus load on the X11.

There's already the 16:53, 17:55 and 17:05 buses cancelled on the 35A towards Low Moorsley giving a nice 4 hour gap. There's also 3 hour gaps on both the 2 and 2A towards Washington, once at 8am in the morning and the other at 2pm.

The X11 should be bottom priority as I said earlier, those punters in Low Moorsley or travelling from Sunderland to the Washington estates have no alternative unless they go on a tour attempting to connect with other services for what some people going on a day trip to Whitby.
