All it takes is a massive delay either end for both services to be heavy delayed.
Flip side of the coin is that service X35 would have operated late all day and not stood a chance of making up time. Let's not forget service X36 (which becomes the next Hartlepool-bound X35) has 22 minutes layover at Park Lane Interchange... If no X35s were dropped today, I guarantee at least four would have been - if there had been no timetable changes.
You'd have thought that an extra bus wasn't added to improve reliability?
