Unlike Central Station and Haymarket, I doubt they're going to be able to get away with telling people to walk from Felling or Pelaw? And with the platforms not having ticket machines, like the closures at Howdon, would they be able to close just one platform and exit via the Northern Rail platform?
I'd imagine if there is any planned possessions of the line, then any work which needs doing which would require platform closure would hopefully be done then but its a good question you have posed there. Pelaw/Felling are not a million miles away from Heworth for people to walk or the alternative would be get a train that will take you in the opposition direction you are going then change at Pelaw/Felling to head the way you were planning too.
I for one hope those automatic doors get fixed once and for all, would not be surprised if Vandalism has played a part but they always seem to be broken(most of them anyways) whenever I go pass them.
