It would work though, here's what you get with Arriva what you wouldn't get with GNE:
Q: Why is my journey taking so long? A: We detoured your bus for the sake of a 10 min combined frequency.
Q: Can I go to the Meteocentre please? A: Yes, but you'll have to pay an extra £3-4 quid.
Q: Can I go to Durham and Teesside? A: Yes, you can use our limited range of services or cough up an extra £7-8 quid.
Q: Can I go to Cobalt off peak and frequently? A: No
Q: Why is my bus breaking down? A: Because we used older vehicles in the majority that have had it.
Q: My bus is late and you's dont know? A: Sorry, we've got no radios and our drivers only have their phones that can't be used legally or can, but the driver must spend time ringing us if late or broken down.
