Why not just do it when its heading to newcaslte then they don't really need to waist time putting their code in, another thing is changing drivers going to Newcastle imo is better from a passenger perspective rather than waiting for two 21's then they just say Gateshead on the Display seems a bit pointless. Same for the 20, they now change drivers at Stand L, whereas if they changed from Stand E?, they could just but their code in when in Park Lane, instead of the driver having to put his code in for the 5 min journey between Stand E & Stand L.
As Storkx (sorry if I got the name wrong) said I wouldn't want to drive down the A1 daily to work, especially with all the traffic.
Does anyone know the Rota pattern for Gateshead now?
21 and X21 are on their own rota (silver) with reliefs taking place at Gateshead Metro. 10 and 12 are also on their own rota (red) with reliefs at the Metrocentre. 53/54/Q3 are their own rota. Everything else which is operated from Gateshead Metro is on the main rota (green). Then you have miscellaneous duties such as splits which cover scholars and workers contracts.
