Twice hourly and more chance of a seat/less chance of a breakdown/delay and if there is a breakdown/delay - then there's the delay repay scheme.

It's not twice hourly all day though.

The X10 does get full at times too especially after Peterlee.

To be honest - the whole shambles of vehicle suitability began in 2017 when GNE under Kevin Carr bought them absolutely stupid basketcase hairdryer Volvo B5TL Gemini 3 deckers......just because they were "Volvo" and "Wrightbus".

The order should've been either integral ADL E400MMC with ZF - or Scania N250UD E400MMC - both options with 2x spares for a then PVR of 7x.

Likewise, some dealer stock Volvo B9TLs (im 2014/15 financial year) or then new E400MMC would've been better for the X21 than the pile of ***** StreetDecks ordered in 2016.
