RE: Tyne and Wear Metro
Update: Metro passengers should expect serious disruption and leave extra time for journeys, gaps of 20 minutes in most cases but up to one hour. Use alternative travel where possible. Engineers are still repairing damage in parts of the system. Metro is suspended between Benton and Monkseaton. Rush hour trains to and from Pelaw are cancelled this morning so other trains will be busier than normal. Thanks,Thomas, Tyne and Wear Reporter Visit my photostream here (Updated often)Was SPD17 |

RE: Tyne and Wear Metro
My refurbished Metro rides were in card 4041 and 4058. Given that the line around South Shields is closing next Saturday for just over 3 weeks, my decision to go to Newcastle last week and to London for the Olympics bus services next weekend, rather than viceversa, has proved vindicated. It was bizarre that the station decor at Haymarket has been refurbished but the ticket machines not replaced, yet they have at some other places like Fawdon. It would have been such good publicity to have a flagship station in the city centre. |

RE: Tyne and Wear Metro
Yes, they are all supposed to be completed eventually but Haymarket Station was refurbished before the new ticket machines were introduced across the network which is probably why it doesn't have them but is rather strange. Arriva Durham County Scania OmniCity CN94UB 4664 NK07 FZG

RE: Tyne and Wear Metro
Hi, I was on Metrocar 4001 on a Monkseaton bound service yesterday, and when it approached Monument, the display only showed ''The next station is Monument'', whereas the voice announcement said the full script. Is it normal for a Monkseaton bound train to only show this or have the displays been changed? |

It appears to only be short workings that will display the 'cut down' message. |
