On this Day in 1910
Whitley Bay Railway Station
The new railway station in Whitley Bay was opened on the 9th October 1910, replacing an earlier station of 1882. From 1904 the coastal route from Tynemouth to Monkseaton was served by electric trains commonly known as "Tyneside Electrics". The new station was built to meet growing use by both tourists and commuters travelling to work in Newcastle. The building was designed by William Bell of York, who later decided to retire to Whitley Bay.
