Thanks for responses on how trains reached Tyne Commission Quay. This station is shown on my old A to Z Atlas, on east side of Albert Edward Dock (the original name of Tyne Commission Quay) adjacent to the River. Another query: In the same area, at which location at Percy Main did the "Jam"...

What was the route of the Boat Trains to Tyne Commission Quay from Newcastle? Other sources state branch from Percy Main, but all maps I have seen do not show any track connections from Percy Main, but just the line from the north via Backworth area
