Later Nights Oot On The Toon......
Don't forget that you can enjoy these balmy summer evenings and stay in Newcastle a little bit later. The last train on the Northumberland Line leaves Newcastle at 23:21 on Monday to Saturday evenings - giving you a little bit longer to enjoy that theatre trip, concert or night on the Toon. The 23.21 calls at Manors, Northumberland Park, Seaton Delaval, Newsham, Blyth Bebside, Bedlington and Ashington. Northern | Buy Cheap Train Tickets Online | Rail Fares
