How does the Tyne and Wear Metro count as a subway? Isn't it basically a surface system? [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 07:59, 16 February 2008 (EST)

: It has undergound sections (newly tunnelled in the 70s/80s) on two lines in the centres of Newcastle & Gateshead, with 7 stations underground in total. OK, most of the system is above ground (but then so is a majority of the London Underground mileage, if memory serves; I could be wrong - but there is a lot above ground). Don't take our subway status away from us! [[User:Sawneybeane|Sawneybeane]] 08:06, 16 February 2008 (EST)
