I’m hearing it will happen pretty suddenly too. The good thing is that all jobs are safe with operations transferring to Stockton & Whitby.

Can't imagine the drivers will be too keen on that though.

Assume there will be some payments to make people move as it's a fair trek. Hopefully they've learnt their lessons after the shambles of Jesmond and Chester Le Street (Gilbert being involved in that mess).
