Looks like I was wrong about Coxlodge. It appears it was planned as an additional station between Fawdon and Wansbeck Road although, judging by how the stations are spaced, Fawdon may have been where Kingston Park is (a station which wasn't planned until later) and Coxlodge where Fawdon appears.

Also, take a look at the Tyne Valley Line!
