That green lane station idea is genuinely pointless, one station In an area with three to use. A better idea would be to run it down the old trackbed in biddick hall which could have a potential two new stations, connecting people who genuinely don't have a metro service and a shorter less painful journey to east boldon. I also don’t know why they don’t on the washington line terminate it at shiney row, adding a station at penshaw then instead of creating loops it’s just one line. I know this is extremely ambitious but they could run the metro through cobalt making use of the old 3rd platform at north shields then taking a left at the top of the line and continuing to shiney or South Shields.
