I noticed before Easter that a number of Metrocars passing through Gateshead on an evening were looking incredibly dirty, though assumed it was due to the time of day.
However, I'm on 4090 at the moment and it seems to have got doors which are more black than white at the 'B' section on the driver side. I went to Paris last week and it was my ride to Central Station and it was the same then, too. Probably worth mentioning that the Next Stop Announcements aren't yet working either.
There are also Metros terminating short at Park Lane/Sunderland this morning due to delays.
I never noticed dirty Metrocars yesterday, and I must have seen all of them as I did all lines. A couple don't have NSAs working yet, but all the ones that I was on (inc. 4002) had the NSAs working.
There's a "Metrowash" at South Gosforth, but if 3kph speed limit is to go by, we are still in the 1980s
When I was at Park Lane yesterday, only the next due Metro to Airport was shown on the board, also when I arrived at Northumberland Park on the morning, the Metro that I missed that was heading to South Shields displayed "Monkseaton" on the destys.
