Both promoted teams began the day on 19 points but West Brom looked sharper throughout and deserved their victory.
After a flat opening half-hour, Somen Tchoyi fashioned the breakthrough with some neat control on the edge of the box and curled the ball beyond Tim Krul after 32 minutes.
The second goal came after 71 minutes when Newcastle’s Danny Guthrie slipped to present Peter Odemwingie with a clear run on goal.
The Nigeria striker, a deadline-day signing from Lokomotiv Moscow, got the third a minute from the end, running on to a simple long ball by Marek Cechl and rounding the keeper.
Peter Lovenkrands grabbed an injury-time consolation for Newcastle.
West Brom are the classic ‘yo-yo club’ as they regularly swing from Premier League relegation to Championship promotion but they will harbour hopes of survival this time.
In recent weeks they have lost to Stoke City, Blackpool and Wigan Athletic but they have also won at Arsenal and Everton and drawn at Manchester United.
Newcastle have been similarly schizophrenic. A season that has brought a 6-0 win over Aston Villa, a 5-1 thrashing of Sunderland, a victory at Arsenal and last week’s draw with Chelsea also featured a 5-1 loss at Bolton Wanderers and home defeats to Stoke Blackburn Rovers and Blackpool.
Sunderland play West Ham United later on Sunday (1600 GMT) while Liverpool host Aston Villa on Monday (2000).
