The waiting shed on the up platform in April 1977. Both black-and-white ‘corporate identity’ and earlier tangerine BR(NE) signage is in place. A damaged Tynerider timetable in its distinctive orange colour is on display. Graffiti writers have apparently been practising their craft, but their messages have been painted over. The substantial Victorian terraced houses in the background remind us of the socio-economic status of the station’s catchment area.
