Talk:List of Tyne and Wear Metro stations

Untitled
I don't know if this is worth discussiong, but Pelaw is in no way a "converted" station, as it was built from scratch in 1985. If Tyne Dock, Fawdon, Northumberland Park, Regent Centre, and Central Station are purpose-built, despite being on the site of another station, then logically Pelaw is too. I've changed Pelaw to indicate this. ProhibitOnions 00:31, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

St Peter's
Isn't St Peter's a converted station as it was built where a station called Monkwearmouth was sited? Simply south 12:25, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * No. It is located a few hundred yards south of Monkwearmouth station, which still exists as the Monkwearmouth Station Museum. If you look at the full size versions of Image:Monkwearmouth Station Musuem from Metro 02.jpg you can see things like the canopy and platform number sign of St Peter's station. See also Multimap map, Museum location map. Thryduulf 14:29, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I've had a measure of how close they are now. The bridge at Monkwearmouth is 122 metres from the centre of the main canopy at St Peters. It is 34 metres from the southern end of the eastern Monkwearmouth platform to the northern end of the eastern platform at St Peters. In contrast the closest two operational stations I can think of - Canary Wharf DLR station and Heron Quays DLR station are 107 metres apart at their closest points (West India Quay DLR station is about 108 metres from Canary Wharf at the closest points, but it was being rebuilt when the air photo I have access too was taken so its difficult to be accurate)!Thryduulf 14:46, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

High Lane Row
Isn't High Lane Row between Jarrow and Hebburn, and isn't the track double there already? Where exactly is this talking about? --88.110.235.235 07:54, 1 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, the location was listed incorrectly. However, it's not dual track, as one of the two tracks is used for freight only and has nothing to do with Metro. Not only would the trak need to be dualled at the High Lane Row site, but there would be issues with scheduling if the track between stations remained single. I suspect this might be given the go-ahead once they get their new rolling stock in a few years' time and it becomes more of an issue. Pro hib it O ni o ns  (T) 15:02, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Jesmond renamed
Have changed the name of Jesmond, as it previously was shown as 'Jesmond Metro Station' - it is now logical and named using the same convention as all the others shown. Uk.seedy (talk) 21:16, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
