They pretty much are the slow services anyway though.True, but how would they split the revenue generated especially if people have got weekly tickets off services whcih aren't there or just like North Tyneside Tickets.
The 306 is 10 minutes quicker than the 310 and 308 is 2 minutes quicker but it feels much quicker than that as it doesn't trundle around Cobalt and Battle Hill, not to mention it would be an even timetable as the 309 goes direct skipping High Farm so it's a bizarre 3 / 7 / 10 timetable through Battle Hill which is less than ideal.
Hadrian Park is a pain in the arse as it's not busy but whatever route goes through there is a nuisance and there's no need for the 311 as it just overbuses Newcastle to Station Road. I agree the 310 is a big no no though so the 309 is the next best target as they have the 308.
Singles & Returns are easy well...would they split them 5 ways or would the 311 just be withdrawn so they can split them 4 ways
