RMweb Gold Popular Post Market65 Posted February 11 Author RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted February 11 Good evening, everyone. Firstly, thank you, Railpassion, for those excellent photo’s of the work at Bridlington. It is interesting that the lines are now double up to Quay crossing. It means that the former sanddrag is no more. Thank you, Mick, for the clearer photo’ of H&BR, 129. It is interesting that the photo’ was actually taken at Wrangbrook Junction. Thanks to for the signalling diagram of Wrangbrook Junction. This evening, we have four photo’s to enjoy, thanks to knoxrj, Paul Kearley, John Turner, and 6Y99, all on Flickr. The first one is a shot of class A7, 69772, with class N8, 69393, at Hull Dairycoates, on the 18th May, 1952. The second photo’ shows class B2, 5426, City of Chester, on Hull Botanic Gardens shed, in the Spring of 1935. Next we have a photo’ of 60010 drawing train, 6D71, the 0327 Rylstone to Hull Dairycoates through the Discharge Bunker at the ''Tilcon Depot'', on the 10th September, 2008.

Railpassion Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Work finished on schedule at Bridlington The new arrangement allows the same speed on both lines and gives a better run for northbound trains out of No4 platform. The new turnout is close to the original 1973 start of the single line. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted February 16 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 16 Good evening, everyone. Firstly, I don’t know exactly what happened with the last photo’ yesterday, but I think, on looking at other photo’s of that train, on Flickr, and reading the captions, that a mix up of some kind must have happened. Well here is the correct details of that train for those who don’t know. A Kings Cross to Beverley Charter on 21/12/19. So, now for this evening’s four photo’s courtesy of Charlie Verrall, knoxrj, and Andy Hughes, all on Flickr. The first one is a view of NER, 2-4-0, 269, at Bridlington, in c1912. Next is a photo’ of class N8, 9373, at Hull Dairycoates, on October 25th, 1947. The third photo’ shows another class N8, this one being 9375, at Dairycoates, on April 29th, 1947.
