Congratulations to all concerned for finishing that journey within the time limit set and allowing for the change of order of the last four legs of the journey. I will now set the monster-length new journey that hopefully will keep everyone busy during our seven day holiday on the Isle of Wight.

I thank those of "The Regulars" for their kind wishes and I see that the new leg has commenced. I feel that Crag Mill (1871-1877) has been missed....but to carry on.....

There were two stations on this site, 1847 to 1887 and 1887 to 1980. However they were very close to each other so I think they only count as one.

I presume we now join the Durham Coast Line so avoiding the the former heavy rail stations that have now become Metro stops....

I think Pelaw is worth further investigation - it seems to have had a most complicated history. There have been at various times three stations on the main line that we just traversed, all physically separate from the metro station which is on a different new alignment to the south.
