Northumberland Park is a multi-modal station with both a Tyne and Wear Metro station and National Rail station, serving the village of Backworth and suburbs of Northumberland Park and West Allotment, as well as the nearby Cobalt Business Park, North Tyneside in Tyne and Wear, England. The Metro station opened on 11 December 2005, on the alignment of the former Blyth and Tyne Railway. A Network Rail line shares the alignment at this point as part of the Northumberland Line, which was freight-only between 1964 and 2024. The National Rail station opened on 22 February 2026, creating a new interchange with the Metro network. Both the Metro and National Rail stations are part of the Pop smartcard system, but passengers need to tap out at one station and back in at the other when changing trains.
