Talking of connections, the driver of the 1937 63 from Redcar on Good Friday night won't win any awards for customer service. The 22 due at 1926 pulled in the bus station 10 minutes late, passenger jumped off and ran up the bus station, just as the 63 pulled away. He tapped on the door but the driver refused to open it and let him on. He had only moved about two inches.
