Are you sure that it's not 90473? The cabside rivets make it difficult to be sure.

 I thinks I'd trust Mr. Turner, given 90473 was a Colwick ingine and scrapped during 1962.

If there's a John Turner caption - I'm with you. I just wondered if the WD had been identified solely from the photo.

Good evening, everyone. This evening we have a photo’ by John Turner, on Flickr, of Gresley, LNER, 61ft 6in Driver Training / Route Learning Saloon, DE320765, lettered "Motive Power Dept. York, being propelled through Hessle station by an unidentifiable Thompson B1, in c1963.
 

Best regards,

 

 Rob.

Interesting coach.

Does anyone know drawing/diagram no, and dates of construction/allocation/use?

[Market65]

Hi, cctransuk, and Porcy Mane. I’ve cruelly enlarged the cabside of that WD, and I’m not sure whether the last number is a 3 or an 8. Perhaps someone with better eyesight can say which it is. 
 

Regarding that Gresley coach conversion, I’ll see if I can find out the date etc., I may be a little while, I’ve a couple of other things to do.

 

Regards,

 

Rob.

 

And, here’s that enlargement, and hoping it does not infringe the copyright, for the original remains credited to John Turner, on Flickr.

N.E region route learner. Cinema seating at both ends. Allowed multiple crews to route learn rather than just one or two extras crammed into a loco cab.

 

Still going strong in 68.

90473 was withdrawn in December 1962.... so it's 90478 :)

Improvised double bolster - you can see the bolsters through the missing side doors, and the end doors have been removed.

Good evening, everyone. This evening, with thanks again to John Turner and Peter Brumby, on Flickr, we see B1, 4-6-0, 61080, as it reverses from the buffer stops at a wet and grey Hull Paragon after bringing a passenger train into the station. The LNER built locomotive will now run light to Dairycoates for servicing, on the 20th February, 1960.

 

Best regards,

Cottingham South, P Way and Signalling.

[Market65]

Good evening, everyone. Firstly, thank you, Mick, for posting that diagram of Cottingham Junction. It is most interesting, and it’s sobering that only the two running lines on the line from Paragon to Cottingham remain.

 

This evening, courtesy of John Turner, on Flickr, we are in Hessle, seeing Stanier 8F, 2-8-0, 48075, of 55D, as it runs through Hessle, with a down Class H freight, on the 8th February, 1964.
 

Best regards,

 

 Rob.

Good evening, everyone. This evening, thanks to John Turner, on Flickr, we see WD, Austerity, 90450, of 50B, at North Ferriby, or more commonly known as Ferriby, with an up freight, on the 26th October, 1963.
 

Best regards,

 

 Rob.

Good evening, everyone. This evening, with thanks once more to John Turner, on Flickr, we see an unidentified Gresley, K3, 2-6-0, which has just passed Hessle station with a Hull-bound Class A passenger train, on the 24th June,1961.

 

Best regards,

 

 Rob.

[Market65]

Good evening, everyone. This evening we have another photo’ by John Turner, on Flickr, and it is of Dairycoates depot's Thompson B16/3, 4-6-0, 61463, as it approaches North Ferriby station with an up Class F express freight, in c1964.
 

Best regards,

Thank you Mick for posting the signalling layout plans. They add so much to compliment the photos of the trains

I am a signal engineer originally from York, with roots in Goole and who developed the scheme for the 1980s Hull Paragon resignalling so all of the pictures and plans are of interest. My Dad was neighbour of the late Fred Mackrill of Botanic Gardens too. Lots of memories

Small world, I was signalman at Paragon 2002 to 2014, I well remember the 1983 resignalling, at that time I was signalman Gylberdyke.
