The 1/X1 passes my home and the loadings throughout yesterday were much lower than earlier in the week or a normal Saturday and at least one Pulsar on the 1 was replaced by a Solo before 5pm, as there was no need for the capacity.
However I have seen quite a few taxis working today including a Stanley travel minibus in Darlington.
I worked the 1740 X5 from Middlesbrough last night and only had 1 passenger from there to Loftus, nobody else. Complete waste of time. The 5 at 1750 behind me only had 3 people too.
