(09 Jun 2014, 5:26 pm)Dan wrote Thought we'd already established that Go North East's fares on the service in question are very cheap and operators up and down the country (Arriva North East and Stagecoach North East included) all pass the services onto the local councils/PTEs when they're not commercially viable (i.e. this implies no operators care about their customers)? Still well said, or have I missed something?

Yes it applies to all the operators not GNE in particular. Maybe there should be a rule that any operator running a daytime of a certain frequency should have to operate a similar evening service of a given frequency?
