The track used to be there into the early 2000s, my Dad lives next to it in Biddick Woods and we used to walk along it when I was a kid, but it's definitely gone now.

It was early 2010s that all the track was removed. This was following some theft of it a couple years earlier in the Penshaw area.

The Viaduct is also fenced off and would likely need some structural work. Though I understand Network Rail still monitor and 'maintain' it.
