(31 Dec 2015, 3:39 pm)Dan According to Real Time Trains (http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/search/b...12/29/0500), the service uses Platform 3, which is the Airport-bound Metro platform. The photograph citaro5284 uploaded above would suggest that it stretches up towards Platform 4, which is the platform Northern Rail services use during the day.
Having used the 0544 Metro previously, I know that this service used to use Platform 3, as it terminated in Park Lane on the platform towards Airport rather than South Hylton. It appears, assuming RTT is correct, that this service now uses Platform 2 (as it does during the day).
Aircraft flown on:
744, 77W, 772, E145, E190, E170, E175, E195, A319, A320, A320NEO, A321, A321NEO, A330-200, A330-300, A340-600 763, 752, 733, 737, 738, CRJ900, CRJ1000
