What were the loadings when the 8 ran to sunderland in the evenings?

I'd suspect the issue here is about covering as much, with as little resource as possible. Splitting the 2 in Sunderland is not only an extra bus, but it's significant waste in layover time, and it's confusing for passengers who have a through service all day.

Yes, I recall it (the 8) ran all the way to Sunderland, but I believe it was fully commercial.
