Pure and simple, the X10 does not have enough fleet rotation.
Look at Arriva Ashington. 30+ E400MMC which can do anything from the X21/35, X22 all the way to the X18.
GNE rely on the same E400MMC + 6377 which is not enough. A stronger fleet rotation with more E400MMC at Riverside (i.e Whickham & Dunston going back to half hourly) will sort a lot of issues out.
