And...a more cut down commuter rail


As I mentioned many metro station should be skipped on the prior idea. Here is a more cut down and 'proper' version.
This still isn't the most conservative version (knock out Spennymoor and a few of the extra commuter stops in smaller places for that, e.g. Blackhall) but there we go.

I wonder what the final outcome will be when Blyth and Ashington finally do get their train stations.
It seems likely that Leamside will be reopened in Washington giving it a mainline train station too (unfortunately) so perhaps a single route which avoids Chester-Le-Street and the ECML and instead runs through Washington then onwards to either Sunderland or Durham and finally Boro?
