Aside from the obvious possibility that it could have just been a mistake, Go North East did make a post earlier stating that there were delays to services which use Lobley Hill Road due to temporary traffic signals (perhaps accounting for the delays mentioned earlier to services 93/94). Perhaps if it departed severely late out of Consett, it was organised to regulate the service Gateshead - Newcastle? Those who were waiting for the bus in Newcastle would have been advised to get on a bus to Gateshead and transfer there, if so.
