We found the staff helpful, the station easy enough to navigate, etc... I was glad that we arrived early to find which platform our LNER train was on (#3) and then figure out what area to board based on our prebooked tickets. I didn't realize until it was too late that there was a designated warmer indoor area for us to wait. Bummer! Our train departed on time but did hit a delay on our route... clearly that is not the fault of the Newcastle Central Station, however. I'm not sure if/when I'll be back, but if you find yourself in the area, this is a beautiful station to come into or out of. Safe travels!

The station opened in August 1850, as part of the then Newcastle & Carlisle Railway and York, Newcastle & Berwick Railway. Now it's a Grade 1 listed building located in the city's Grainger Town area, to the west of the Castle Keep. The station was noted for its complex set of diamond crossings to the east of the station which facilitated access to the High Level Bridge and northbound East Coast Main Line and was said to be the greatest such crossing in the world. The crossing was the subject of many early-1900s post cards, titled The Largest Railway Crossing in the World, photographed from the castle (towards the station), or from the station towards the castle. Trains cross the River Tyne on one of two bridges. The older High Level Bridge, south-east of the station, was designed by Robert Stephenson opened on 27 September 1849. Its location meant north-south trains had to reverse in the station to continue their journey. The King Edward VII Bridge south-west of the station opened on 10 July 1906 allowing north-south trains to continue without reversing. The two bridges enable the trackwork north and south of the river to form a complete circle, allowing trains to be turned if necessary. The former Gateshead depot next to the connecting tracks on the south side of the Tyne, mirrored Newcastle station.

This is the second horrendous experience we've had with 1AB Taxis. We pre booked two taxis several…read moreweeks ago for a family get together. We have a young baby and needed to guarantee we could get home. We were ready for collection, waiting on the doorstep. At our arranged time the phone rang once and hung up but no sign of either taxi on the street. We waited and waited. After 15 minutes we rang the 1AB to be told that WE were no shows and that there were no available taxis until nearly 3am and hung up on us. We called up to explain that we had a young baby and could not possibly wait until 3am and asked them to investigate what had happened to both drivers as we had booked two taxis. I was placed on hold and after a minute they hung up. After that they stopped answering any of our calls. We were left stranded on a freezing December night by this company who clearly were prioritising shorter journeys and profit over the welfare of its customers. We will never use these again.

Instead of apologising and offering to help in any way the driver blamed the company and said it wasn't his fault. The least he should have done is a) apologised unreservedly and b) waived his fare or c) taken us to Newcastle. Note to file: if a taxi is booked for 7.30 that means 7.30.
