Yeah that's true but I always though that any exclusive tickets have to be valid on the opposite services so this ticket has to include the 306/308 and the Arriva opposite has to include the 307/309. Obviously the North Tyne tickets do that anyway.

Route savers shouldn't exist for the 307/309 or 306/308 only, it literally defeats the point of the partnership.

Whether the Arriva one includes the 307/309, who knows, as it still mentions the X6 which got scrapped nearly 5 year ago now.

I do see your point nevertheless!

Also, very interesting that GNE mention the Cobalt & Coast ticket also being valid on the 41/41A.

Could this be a sign that GNE are going to withdraw the 307 from Hadrian Park in the future either for quicker journey times, or to ramp up Cobalt to Newcastle with a 10 minute service and the 307 going via Norham Road North & Cobalt instead?

Would be a very stupid mistake if they did as no doubt Stagecoach would capitalise on the Hadrian Park > Wallsend > Newcastle corridor, effectively killing off the 41/41A as a commercial service during the day.

Not too sure to be honest, but the 41/41A is an interesting one, guessing they're trying to boost the numbers on both maybe since it's pretty much the only other service in the area.
