Regarding your X57, direct services don’t work anymore especially for private bus companies which only interested in profits first to make there shareholders smile, passengers from Hartlepool could get the 24 to Durham from Hartlepool on the times that suit the bus company, the route for the 57/57a saga is more for the communities and villages to be connected which are not profitable so there have to be tendered out by the local authority. It’s not just for passengers who want to go from Hartlepool to Durham quick as possible.
