I expect Maurice will know the history of this railway carriage.

The North Tyneside Loop was an suburban line, employing third rail electrification from 1904. This LNER carriage appears to be non-corridor, suburban stock, with what look like hefty bogie structures, but in fact are probably the third rail pick ups. So this could be a power car possibly with a driver's compartment on the right. Maurice may know ..

Sorry it has taken so long for me to pick this up. The vehicle appears to be a brake third. I can not see any third rail collection shoes on the bogies or any drivers cab window next to the end (right hand). I suspect it is a steam hauled coach rather than part of an electric set. I am not too familiar with the operation of the Tyneside electric services at this time, but most electric trains are formed into sets with electrical connections that make splitting them a depot job rather than one for a siding like this.

Thank you both Maurice and MB for enlightening me regarding this carriage and the Tyneside Electrified system which I never saw in action.

St Paul's Church of England School. The Christmas edition of the Whitley Seaside Chronicle included reminiscences of Whitley, including a note that the village school room was built near St Paul's Church, at the cost of Mrs Abbott of Beaufront Castle, in 1871.
