Penshaw 1st station (site), Tyne & Wear
Opened in 1841 by the Durham Junction Railway on the line from Washington to Rainton Meadows, local services initially ran to Gateshead. From 1844, the Newcastle and Darlington Junction Railway via Leamside connected to this line just south of Fencehouses, and so it became part of the East Coast Main Line from London to Newcastle (until 1872 when the current main line via Durham was opened).
View north towards Washington and Newcastle. The station initially had two parallel platforms north east of station road. The station, which was also known as "Pensher" at this time (and "Painshaw" on OS maps) was relocated to 200m behind the camera position in 1881. The track through here was in situ until 2012. No trace of either station apparently remains.

Leamside Line at Penshaw
The Leamside Line is the mothballed railway which runs parallel to the East Coast Main Line between Ferryhill and Newcastle. The trackbed and ballast has been preserved against possible re-opening although the track has been removed (some of it stolen as on this section).
