In this edition of “Out and About” we have a Valentine’s Day visit to the Tyne and Wear Metro with an old love still continuing to operate the service.

4005 is seen in this photo leading an unidentified sister unit into Wallsend as it works a service to South Shields.

Also taken at Wallsend this photo shows 4017 at the rear of a double unit (4029 is at the head). It too is working to South Shields.

4019 sits at Airport before it and its unidentified partner set off for South Hylton via central Newcastle. (All Photographs by Jim Smythe, 14th February 2024)
