No surprise thst the 23 Hartlepool
To Sunderland is being curtailed. It’s a shame but I only ever used it as a last resort. Train much faster and there’s now extra services . For me, there should have been an express to Sunderland . 1 hour 30 mins is ridiculously long, when a train journey is 25 mins. Maybe SNE could fill the void?

They may as well scrap the 23. Pointless route if it terminates at Peterlee.
