Good morning,
I may be going to the North East in a few months and am considering going upto Alnwick from Newcastle, I did this years ago with Northumbria buses who were really good, had great friendly & helpful staff and a fast service that took about 80 minutes ish. They don't seem to exist now. When I looked on travel line there seems to be slow services, but also faster buses, X15 & X20, although the website seems to show that you have to change buses at Morpeth or Ashington, with a 5 to 10 minute connection time, although both sectors have the same number, i.e. X15/X15. Does anyone know if you do need to changes buses, or is it a through service, just stay on the bus? I presume a North East rover ticket would be cheaper than a day return and I think you can use that on the Metro to get to Haymarket Bus Station?
Tks.
