    The warning yellow changed about the time the photo was taken, the Brush 2 would have the later yellow whilst the Brush4 had the older yellow. Plus both would have differing undercoats as Crewe used a dark under coat and Donny used a buff undercoat. Al Taylor

    The slow lines between Hessle station and Hessle Haven had been out of use for about two years when that photo was taken. Al Taylor

    The last year the Hull Pullman ran (68/69)as full Pullman service the formation leaving Hull was as follows , BG, Parlour second, first kitchen (kitchen north), first kitchen (kitchen north), first parlour, kitchen second (kitchen north), Kitchen second (kitchen south). This service didn't run on a Saturday as it did when part of the Yorkshire Pullman. but was still 1035 off Paragon with a return at 2045 in to Paragon. Al Taylor

    Hi, The Hull Portion of the Yorkshire Pullman initially had the K type brakes till around winter 64/5. The formation after this was on leaving Hull, BG, Second Parlour, First Kitchen, First Parlour And Second Kitchen. The kitchens where at the south end and on Saturdays the First Parlour would stand spare in Hull. The white roofs didn't last very long. Hope that helps Al Taylor

    Having just received my Dia. O.62 W1047, I am highly impressed. Rail blue looks spot on for the era. Nice crisp lettering. And the bogies and under frame detail take coach models to whole new level. The MK2s if they are to the level will all be very well received. Al Taylor

    The six bolt plates were a modification done at depots as well as main works. The reason for the six bolts was that new plate was much thinner and to give a better seal it required the two extra bolts that a works plate didn't have. I wish I had kept a few of the works plates when doing the modification when I was an apprentice at York. This was around 77/78. Al Taylor

    A few XC set were hired in. They would often catch drivers out when going up Stoke Bank as 125 would easily achieved. They were kept on a diagram that was out and back off EC. Al Taylor

    The Black Arrow rocket logo is totally different to that on the coach. However there was a construction company called Black Arrow that a similar logo to that on the coach and been a departmental vehicle it would seem that this vehicle could be in use with them. Al Taylor

    When built the exhaust on a DMCL come on to the roof in line with the interior wall of the toilet. A trailer with exhaust pipe will look odd, they just need cutting off an smoothing down.

    Bachmann do the trailer car "chassis" as a spare. Just remove the exhausts from the roof or end on your non powered car. Just take care on renumbering as the only ER vehicles that the Bachmann models is good for is the 512xx/564xx batch.

    At some collieries had series of machines for moving wagons under the loader. These consisted of lorry wheels electrically driven which moved the wagons through the loader. You would see the same marks on MGRs too.
