Be interesting to see if the:
X14 (Morpeth to Thropton), X15/X18 (North of Alnwick), X16, 434, 57A (Ashington to Cramlington) and 777 run during these strikes with emergency contracts like they did in Hexham in some form of way.

I believe they're all contracted services or subsidised - would give a level of service to most areas of some form, if they can get someone to actually run them.
