ANE are a lot cheaper than GNE in some instances, as I think a return on the X1/X2 from Newcastle to Middlesbrough was £6.50, although it takes 30 minutes longer.
I agree that ANE are cheaper / better value as their NE day saver is only £7.50 and that ticket could get you from Berwick to North Yorkshire if you were willing to sit on a X15, X2, X1 and X93 for the best part of a day.
