40 mins ·
There are delays of up to 20 mins between South Shields and St James, up to 20 mins between Airport and South Hylton, this was due to a failed train and an unruly passenger elsewhere

What's wrong with going mob handed, and chucking the pratt off?
That's almost as good as the Metro excuse generator, and also the customer service buzzword bingo.

(14 Sep 2015, 6:50 pm)Dan wrote I thought it sounded somewhat unrealistic, given that Tommy has previously quoted the weekday PVR (12 minute frequency on each line with extra trains at peak times) being quite high, leaving very little spare trains, when the PVR was previously discussed. The Sunday frequency on each line is 15 minutes, so I can't see the PVR being reduced drastically to allow for 60-70 trains to be made available.
