    Newcastle Central Station to Manors at 6:25 on a Saturday morning - £8.80 - the two stations are about 1500 feet apart but you need to go via Morpeth :D

    Isnt Manors a metro station? And they seem further than 1500ft apart (unless you mean as the crow flies, but even then not sure)

    Nope, it's a real station that backs onto Manors car park (the ugly 60's car park you see from the Central Motorway)

    Wow - how interesting. Walked past there loads of times, and never noticed an actual train station! Only accessible by foot bridge these days, ha.
