Ashington currently missing 7 of the 20 X21/X22 boards. At least one 1 hour gap in services which should run every 20 minutes.

X22 alone is missing 3 of the 7 buses, or in other words they’re dropping 43% of trips. The 0704/0729 (16 late starting, so pointless)/0809/0839/0939/1039/1059 trips have all been cancelled and it’s not even lunchtime.

This is all excluding the trips dropped due to late running because of the weather, too.

Two separate buses have also failed on the 777.

They’ve had months to rectify this and nothing is being done, a masterclass in incompetent management. I remember posts on here saying that engineering management have changed - clearly it’s made zero difference, as the standards have got no better.
