So with the 306 cut from Whitley Bay, Arriva will only have the 57/57A and 308 there? Just the same as how the 309 goes there but the 307 doesn't. Makes the 57/57A even more of an oddity in the area.
From Newcastle to Whitley Bay there will only be the 308, 309 and the Metro? 350/351 and 356 as well, but I believe it takes longer on them? Obviously the Coaster as well, but that goes the long way round and takes forever. Even from Wallsend, the 317 is quicker.
Takes ages on the 306 end-to-end because it serves Tynemouth on the way, 308, 309 and 350/351 are quicker, plus the Metro is there.
