Westoe Lane station, South Shields & Whitburn Colliery Railway, 1953
The view is westward, towards Tyne Dock and Whitburn Junction. In the opposite direction ran the S.S. & W.C. Railway to Whitburn Colliery, which closed five months later on 23/11/53 along with this station, also the line from Westoe Colliery which lasted until 1993. Ahead the lines were goods only, but electrified, conveying the mineral traffic to Tyne Dock staithes or onto the ex-NER lines. (See also Image]).

Westoe Netty
These were the toilets that used to be on the corner of Imeary Street and Chichester Road in the 1970s; they were nick-named Westoe Netty. I took this photo at Beamish where they had rebuilt the toilets for show but now they have demolished them. I can still remember using them after coming from Derby Street baths when I was about 14.
