I read somewhere that it is a PVR of 22 and some spare with the Euro 5 min - surly Stanley Travel & JH will only be able to provide 5 each max

(28 May 2022, 4:22 pm)Storx Imagine it's to do with where they can switch the wires off. I guess North Shields is part of the Tanner Bank block though.It's possible. But what about when the wall collapsed early this year. The line was shut for 4 days between North Shields & Tynemouth

Surprisingly they didn't do it between Tynemouth & North ShieldsFrom 16th July I believe (starting a week before the schools finish) - they will probably do some other work on the line at the same time.

Noticed that Metro are advertising a 'special ticket' for the Ed Sheeran gig at the Stadium of Plight this weekend. It's £5.70 from whichever station you purchase it at, and is essentially an All Zones DaySaver: https://www.nexus.org.uk/news/item/speci...sunderland
There's also a video telling passengers that it's the best ticket to purchase: https://twitter.com/My_Metro/status/1531660617345404928
When I was at Heworth earlier though, I noticed there was also a board advertising this, despite it *not* being the cheapest option for anyone travelling from that station. A Zone B+C DaySaver would cover the journey.

I'm surprised they're blatantly misleading customers like this. I wonder how many non-regular customers would use the Metro and purchase this ticket, literally thinking it is the best (or even only) option for the journey. I know Metro are skint at the minute, but come on...

(01 Jun 2022, 5:52 pm)MurdnunoC The shyster decease must be spreading like Covid. Perhaps we all need to put out wallets and purses on lockdown to stop the spread of shystering and to save our money from being swindled from us by nefarious public transport operators.

(16 Jun 2022, 7:23 pm)Aaron21 St James to Tynemouth shut for 2 weeks to replace Tanners Bank Bridge. Tynemouth Road will be closed for 2 weeks in the processAnd the first week of the closure the schools are still on, so I wonder which operators they will get to run the replacement bus service.
(17 Jun 2022, 11:37 am)Adrian Have they got the drivers to run it? There's a whole heap of cancellations on their normal timetabled work again today.Could possibly be what we are seeing at the end of June. More than 1 company doing it. Could be GNE,Jh,Stagecoach or who knows
