English: Platform 4 at Monument station on the Tyne and Wear Metro. This platfom is the penultimate stopping point for Yellow line trains to St James, eastbound trains from St James to the North Tyneside coast call at platform 3 on the same level as this. Yellow line trains then loop round via South Gosforth and head south towards Gateshead, Sunderland and South Hylton calling again at Monument, this time at platfom 1, one of a pair of platforms below and at right-angles to platforms3 and 4. Green line trains between Newcaslte Airport and South Shields also call at platforms 1 and 2 at monument station, making this the busiest station on the network.

Monument is the only place in the world where an urban transport line calls twice at the same station.

The person in the photograph demonstates another feature of the Metro - mobile phones can be used throughout the network, even in underground stations such as Monument.
