Opened in 1905 as 'Kenton' by the North Eastern Railway on the line from Gosforth to Ponteland, this station was renamed 'Kenton Bank' in 1923 but closed to passengers in 1929. It was rebuilt and reopened as 'Bank Foot' by the Tyne & Wear Metro in 1980, with the line now going to (Newcastle) Airport.
