There are no trains running between Pelaw and South Hylton in both directions until further notice. This is due to obstruction on the line. Go North East are accepting Metro tickets in the affected area. Bus services 9, 35, X36 operate between Pelaw and Park Lane. We will update you as soon as we have more information.
Wonder if a wheelie bin has blown onto the tracks 'cause of this wind?

On a more serious note, why isn't South Hylton - Park Lane covered by a bus service? Service 8 operates between South Hylton and Sunderland, service 11 operates between Pallion and Sunderland, services 8/20 operate between Millfield and Sunderland, yet Metro passengers are left stranded and cannot use their Metro tickets on these buses?
Let's not forget that services 9, 35 and X36 do not actually operate between Pelaw and Park Lane - they serve some of the Metro stations in between the two quoted stations. Services 9 and 35 cover all stations between Park Lane and Seaburn, and service X36 likewise to St. Peter's, but after that, service 9 is useless until Fellgate and service X36 is useless until Heworth...
