The C2C passes under the Leamside Line
The world-famous C2C cycle route has here left the line of the old Consett and Sunderland railway. The Leamside Line is the mothballed railway which runs parallel to the East Coast Main Line between Ferryhill and Newcastle. The trackbed has been preserved against possible re-opening although the track has been removed.

Dismantled railway line near Washington
This is the original route of the railway line between London and Newcastle-upon-Tyne, opened in 1838. Although the main line was rerouted via Durham in 1872, this line continued in use until 1964 for passenger trains, and 1991 for freight.
The tracks have now been lifted, but the ballast remains.
