Tbf If I was a driver I would, especially with them already have a HGV License so they get £12 odd an hour. 

Really the only thing stopping them in the travel times, as the nearest depots south of Durham is Deptford, Consett and Washington and thats still qutie a trip if you're coming from Darlington, if they had a depot at Durham then I would say quite a few. 

Northbound with Arriva shutting depots in Newcastle a lot might go to Riverside.
