Secrets of the Tyne & Wear Metro

Time for another in the 'Secrets Of...' series, this time we're up in Newcastle on the brilliant Tyne & Wear Metro system. The yellow and black trains scuttle around the 60 station network in and around Newcastle, Tyneside, Gateshead and Sunderland - and we have a look at interesting and fun facts that you may not have know about the network.
