Yepp I think so but Central Stations not going to be fully like Haymarket, there's a few pictures on the nexus website at the bottom http://www.nexus.org.uk/consultation

Some of the stations have just had a lick of paint, from my area that's South Gosforth, Ilford Road and West Jesmond. Shame really I liked the South Gosforth bridge red before they painted it black

TWITA, the organisation that runs NEXUS that runs the Metro (I think that's how it works) has released a potential plan for the future running of the metro such as new rolling stock and extensions. Available from page 31 http://www.twita.gov.uk/sites/default/files/agenda_document/ITA%20140327.pdf

If anyones interested, some pop card barriers have been installed in the concourse of Jesmond Metro Station, it a tiny bit smaller than the London Underground but still looks good

Just though I'd put some photo's of Thursday's Storm They feature from South Gosforth Metro, Jesmond Subway, West Jesmond Subway, Some Traffic and Metros' stopped on the line.

Looks like the metros are having a bit of bother today....

good news that metro is being modernised as they have announced another major line closure http://www.nexus.org.uk/news/2012/nexus-carry-out-major-programme-metro-modernisation-work-north-tyneside

St. James (Tyne and Wear Metro)

New Metros 4042 and 4062 on a evening test run - sorry about it being unclear http://www.flickr.com/photos/goldsmithb/7146027803/ Metro 4041 and 4072 at South Gosforth - Can anyone explain what is happening because they aren't connected or anything...

In that video, the West Jesmond Refurb looks like a great thing to happen, the new shelters look very modern and sleek. I cannot wait for it to happen, I just hope they really clean the underground tunnel as that is quite dirty

Does a train wash need to cost so much? £800,000 seems like a lot of money for a washer, but at least the trains will be cleaner http://www.nexus.org.uk/news/2012/nexus-invests-new-metro-train-wash

"Person was hit at Gateshead Stadium last night." Do you think it was a suicide?

They are animals sometimes, i've never been on the new refurbished metro but from the picture on the designers website it's looking pretty tidy http://www.creactive-design.co.uk/tyne-ans-wear-metro.php

Could you put a link on saying with the picture of the wheelchair emergency button?

What other work do they have to do? Is it like changing the Logo.etc
