Would also put into question, what about the W1/W1A/W3 and 516? If the 5 was moving to Percy Main just to cut down the dead mileage to Jarrow, what about the 516 to South Shields? And the W1/W1A/W3 to Whitley Bay? Plus, if anything, if you were moving it to another depot to reduce dead mileage, wouldn't it make sense to move it to Washington so that Washington does all the 'South Tyne' routes? You just have to think things through to realise that they make sense or whether they are a pack of lies.

Seems a load of crap to me! And I agree with you there, Washington would be a good one, with the 88/88A interworking with the 5. I don't think it will happen... Not in a million years!

it cud only interwork at shields
