Some Northstar ideas:

- X64 - hourly Monday to Sunday all day with extra peak journeys Monday to Friday - Same route as old 604 including Prudhoe Retail Park.

This one would actually be quite popular along the Tyne Valley Corridor and give a faster and more direct service into Newcastle than the 10/10A/10B.

PVR = x2 with additional peak time extras


- X24 - hourly Monday to Saturday including evenings, hourly Sunday daytime

The 'old' X21 route when it was a proper express and not ran by knackered StreetDecks. Fully limited stop between Chester Le Street and Gateshead giving maximum route flexibility to avoid delays / incidents with previous limited stopping arrangements after Framwellgate Moor

PVR = x3


- X19 Tyne Tees Express - hourly Monday to Saturday, two-hourly Sunday daytime

'Old' X10 route to Peterlee via Norton and Stockton including Peterlee station, then non-stop to Heworth, Gateshead and Newcastle - Run by 53 seater easy access coach initially to test the waters.

PVR = x3
