Major delays to trains from South Gosforth - St James due to problem with the overhead line.

Lets hope they get sorted before the morning rush.

There are no trains running between Benton and Shiremoor in both directions until further notice. This is due to a police incident. Go North East are accepting Metro tickets in the affected area. Bus services 19 operate between Northumberland Park and Percy Main. We will update you as soon as we have more information.

What happens when Go North East Accept metro tickets due to a fault or a problem with the service, do Metro have to pay some sort of fee every time this happens?
