Apart from the old Marlbrough Crescent bus station where the Centre for Life is now, there was also the old Gallowgate Bus station which was between China Town and St James Park. It was a Coach Station, but also had stuff from Hexham, Carlisle and the west of the area stop there.
Im pretty certain United/Northumbria had a small depot there too.
Just found this photo from what looks like the early 80's of a TWPTE decker and a West Yorks National Express www.farm6.staticflickr.com/5030/5588959145_01741435d8_z.jpg with a delapidated St James Park in the background. It looks like the prep work for St James Metro Station has started too, judging by the pile of muck in the background
