Tracking Metro's evolution
January 14, 2026
|The Chronicle
THE Tyne and Wear Metro service has been a staple of the North East since it opened in August 1980, with the trains themselves going through countless design variations in the several decades that have followed.

The branding of the Metro system was originally a far cry from the current sleek black, white, grey and yellow colour scheme.
2026 is scheduled to be the last year of the old fleet of trains, marking a major milestone in North East transport.
They have become a major part of everyday life, but by the spring they will all have been decommissioned, paving the way for the new Stadler trains to take over completely.
