Full Route Journey on my favourite Economic service between Sunderland and South Shields, which runs alongside the beautiful coastline for most of the journey.

My only problem with the E1 is during the day it is overtimed, and as a consequence drivers keep pulling over at timing points which can feel very boring, or if not that they'll drive really slow so that they don't have to pull over, it's very hard to win...

This bus was serving Route E1 between Sunderland and South Shields.
