We currently have a failed train at Manors Platform 1, preventing trains from travelling from Manors towards the coast. Please stand by for further information, and listen to the PAs at Monument and St James for information on coast trains.

We still have a service suspension between Park Lane and South Hylton in both directions due to a points failure. Replacement buses are currently operating in this area.


Whos running the Metro replacement service between Park Lane and South Hytlon?

There are no trains running between Pelaw and South Shields in both directions until further notice . This is due to suspected cable theft.

Go North East are accepting Metro tickets in the affected area. Bus services 26/27 operate between Heworth and South Shields.

Stagecoach are also accepting tickets on all their services in the affected area.

A limited 900 replacement bus service is in operation, calling at or near to all stations between Heworth and South Shields.

New timetable has came into effect today. I believe the main changes are during the peak times. Although, unless im missing something, for some reason they have decided to no longer include the additional peak services on the timetable and are advising people to check the journey planner to find times of peak services.

Due to cable theft causing power issues, trains are suspended between Pelaw and South Shields. We have ticket acceptance on 26 & 27 Go North East services between Heworth and South Shields. Dependant upon bus availability we are trying to get a bus replacement service in operation. We expect the service to be off in this area all morning and hope to have the service back in operation to South Shields this afternoon.

I believe this one was involved in a derailment inside the depot.

From whay I have read on other forums, it has been withdrawn with very little sign of being repaired.
