Class 555 diagrams

[davidrockyroad]

Hi all, I can’t see any definitive information on which diagrams the 555s are running on in Newcastle. I’ve been advised by a friend that the public isn’t privy to the same quality of information as we are to national rail, so this may be difficult information to find. I’m visiting at the end of March and want to see and ride on one! MyMetro has said they’re only running on weekdays via their Instagram though. Thanks in advance.

Best place to look for any info regarding 555s is on the 'Light Rail, Metro & Trams' forum and check out 'Tyne & Wear Metro fleet replacement : Awarded to Stadler' thread, that's where you'll find all the info from the 555 experts who will always help you out

However, there have been frequernt ex tempore changes, particularly to T102, because of the closure of parts of the route because of UHLE damage on the line to Sundereland and the closure of the line because of an unsafe road flyover spanning the track.

I’ve just put both diagrams into one new post on the 555 thread to make it easier to find them.
