Genuinely wondering what North Tyneside has to do with Stephenson's Rocket.
I'm assuming it's that, and not the Dunston Rocket.
Absolutely nothing. One of Stephensons early machines, Billy, is housed there but aside them randomly naming the museum after him there is absolutely no connection to north Tyneside at all.
I’ll assume one of the marketing kids or best impersonations looked at google maps and randomly picked out an nearby attraction
