(3 hours ago)L469 YVK wrote Other than the X32 & X70 (due to potential interworking arrangements)......why didn't GNE just decide to curtail everything in Gateshead and have a 5 minute shuttle running.......alongside NECA also allowing users onto Metro?
The shuttle would need more vehicles and drivers.
The X21s would have been turned around at Gateshead regardless, today, because they were getting stuck in Durham, thanks to a shed load of bread.
