Abstract
The magnetic fields produced by DC electric railways can be a nuisance. However, simple measurements of the field have been used to help the Tyneside Metro engineers to locate faults. Plots from a fluxgate magnetometer 120 m away from the track are reproduced and related to train starts from 12 successive stations
