(05 Oct 2023, 5:26 pm)deanmachine Linking Nissan and Amazon to the metro network, as well as eastern Washington would be worth it imo. Although if they were really serious about it they should find a way to get the metro going to the Galleries to me, then have the original part of the Leamside as a heavy rail link.

Aye wasn't clear, there I specifically about the Washington - South Hylton part. Agreed about the section to Washington though, not sure how feasable it would be but I'm surprised they've never looked at going West and heading towards Barley Mow and beyond. The track is all free that way aswell, would link Birtley, Chester Le Street, Stanley and Anfield Plain to the Metro aswell. I know it wouldn't be the most direct route but it would be very competitive with a bus and restore links like Gateshead.

Route I was talking about:
   

Would mean they could bang about getting 'the Metro towards Consett', it's half way there. The section beyond Chester Le Street might be harder to pull off, benefits wise, but I could imagine the section between Washington and CLS North being very popular. Public transport in those areas is generally dreadful.
