The Tyne and Wear Metro platforms at Howdon Station are staggered either side of the level crossing over Howdon Lane. This platform, to the west of the level crossing serves trains heading eastbound to the coast on the track designated the ‘In Loop’. The ‘Out Loop’ track on what is essentially a circular part of the network is that nearest the camera and carries trains bound for Newcastle and the St James terminus.
