That really looks bad to have all of the 56s backing up like that, and not regulate them. However I’m going to say with a degree of hope rather than any certainty that they’ve caught up time with each other and actually left at different times. But I do hope that once control knew these three were running together, that the bus running most behind time, transferred passengers and ran light back to Sunderland to pick up the next journey.
