Just look at the magnificent works plate on H&Brly No.17.

I thought at first it was a nameplate.

[micknich2003]

Further to Jeff's comment, the H&BRly's 2-4-0 passenger engines also had simimilar works plates.

This evening we see three photo’s of Ottringham, in about August, 1964, on the branch to Withernesea, courtesy of John Turner, on Flickr. The first photo’ shows an unidentifiable 2-car Craven's (later TOPS Class 105) DMU, as it departs Ottringham with an afternoon Hull to Withernsea local service.
 

The next photo’ is of the double track through Ottringham station as it gave way to single line operation (as far as Patrington) here at the station's eastern end, and the main arm on the bracket signal gives access to that bi-directional single line, whilst the smaller shunting arm signalled entry to the headshunt for access to the goods yard and coal yard.
 

The third photo’ is of the main station building, and station master's house. 
 

 

Best regards,

An early OS Map of Hull Paragon and "Dog Kennel Lane" before the bridge was built.

God I love old small scale maps like that, 1:2500 planning maps have EVERYTHING labelled!

[Market65]

Good evening, everyone. Firstly, many thanks, Mick, for that much earlier photo’ of the goods yard at Beverley. So many similarities and differences can be seen. And what a fascinating old map of how Paragon station and the approaches were before it was all rebuilt, etc.,

Not in 1963 .  ( bit surprised that they don’t have their nameplates on in 1963 ) 60145 would go on to become the last A1 in service . I do take your point of all the locos that past though Drapers it was a black five he saved .
