|   Station Name: GATESHEAD EAST[Source: Alan Young and Jonathan Clark] east_old20.jpg) Looking north-west in May 1971 from the  footbridge which links Gateshead East and West stations. The loco is leaving High Level   Bridge and is about to  enter Gateshead East, whose wooden platforms can be seen on the right. The  tracks curving leftwards pass through Gateshead West station which closed to  passengers in 1965. Photo by Alan Brown
