Also, somewhere on the Centrelink would be quite decent as you also have the river and a couple of bridges to provide a backdrop.
I was thinking of trying to get a photo of one passing the Riverside depot, preferably Gateshead-bound from the MetroCentre as it would be passing in the direction where Riverside could be in the background.
