- Centralised charging points for EV's - Used by both GNE and Arriva
- GNE have their own depot within a depot
- Arriva have their own depot within a depot
Arriva don't need a depot at Percy Main it's no more helpful than what they've got now.
Any Arriva depot needs to be based in the Cramlington / Sandy Lane area which is close to pretty much all there services.
Also do they really need Percy Main GNE aswell. The 1/307/309 could easily be ran from Riverside especially now the PVR has been cut again. The 41/41A less so but it doesn't really work anyway.
I wouldn't be surprised if it went at some point in the future or at least it becomes an outstation like Hexham.
