I have known family, friends and work colleagues needing to go Newcastle through work but soon as the Eastern quote gets to the finance dept the train wins each time.

I agree that 312 seats a day (it would have to be double daily) is a lot to fill but with flybe's base fares a lot cheaper, I assume that there would be more takers than Eastern. However, whether it it would be enough to make it profitable operation, I have no idea but it is one route that would not be a surprise.
