Hello, I am a newcomer to this interesting forum but not a train specialist. I am looking for any information on passenger traffick (material, stations, timetables if any,..) between London and Newcastle during WW1, more precisely in 1918. I know it is a little bit before LNER was created but ...
Were the passengers train running on a regular schedule during this period?
Did the trains running north only made a stop at the Central Station in Newcastle or did they also stop at Manors?
I thank you in advance

Re: London -Newcastle in 1918
Manors was only used for local trains such as the Tyneside electrics and stoppers to Alnwick and Tweedmouth in the pre LNER days.
Hi interested in the area served by 52D. also researching colliery wagonways from same area.
