Due to a failed train, we are unable to run trains from South Hylton to Airport. We are currently trying to rectify the issue, however currently we will not be sending trains past Pelaw on the Sunderland line.

Joys of being on the shared line.....
(16 Aug 2016, 6:28 pm)stagecoachbusdepot Seems bizaare that they have been able to source only seven buses across the NE given there should be more spares than usual as its the school holidays. Have to wonder how hard they have tried to find buses as even Stagecoach would have spares given the reduced PVR on the 1 for the summer, not to mention all of the displaced Enviro400s.
Last night it was all JH Coaches (not GNE as stated above) - presume it was JH again today?

Services have resumed between Brockley Whins and Pelaw about half an hour ago. Trains are severely disrupted.
The Metro Leafbuster Train was powered by two Metrocars today since the Battery Locos were required for shunting in the depot.
Here the leafbuster is seen at Howdon heading back around the coast.
