Fair one

 

[partridge amongst the pig]

Wouldn't it mess with the track circuits too?

Certainly would aye. You'd expect all the signals to be at danger which would put trains in that area to a stand still n'all.

It's a decent service.

X36 is an ok alternative.

56 takes a week and a half.

Trains still running through Boldon marra, 3 metro fellas on station but they have no idea when metros might start again. Last metro that came through from Newcastle came in on the "wrong line" as there was a loco stuck on the other one then left also going the wrong way!
