Although broadcast in 1994, some of the footage is from the late 80s. The destination indicator changing to Benton, is one thing that went out of use by 1990, when they were replaced by dot matrix ones. And, at Whitley Bay, the route map is pre Airport extension (1991).
The year I came Newcastle for a few months, they phased these trains out, but didn't mean I didn't get to explore Newcastle on these. I loved these. I miss Newcastle but love watching videos to remind me of the city.
