Setting and breaking records for visiting every station on a metro system is a popular challenge, and I was wondering what the current record for the Tyne and Wear metro is. The Evening Chronicle published a story back in November 2012 about Adham Fisher who set a new record of 2 hours, 56 minutes and 32 seconds, however obviously this was almost 7 years ago. Have there been any new attempts or records since then, or this still the record?

I’m not aware of any recent attempts, however with the reliability of the system as it is, you’d need a miracle to get a clean run.

Weekends are a no. There’s either line closures or no drivers so you’d have to go midweek and I honestly can’t recall a day lately where I haven’t had a daily tweet warning of delays.
