This time a few unusual liveries and events...

One of the Wabtec diesel shunters in their own livery shunting a class 91 into the yard. 

This is the class 91 involved... not an unusual livery but it's not very often I get the chance to photograph a 91 separated from its train... and especially from its blunt end. 

Wabtec livery again but this time on a class 08 shunt engine. 

A class 158 with what the books describe as "a Northern-style pictogram livery" - usually advertising places to visit in Yorkshire. 

Loco no. 91 111 named "For the Fallen" pushes its London bound train into the north end of the station. 

HST power car 43 238 named "National Railway Museum 40 years 1975-2015" brings up the rear of a down train. 

One of Freightliners "special" liveries.. probably better not to ask!!

 When the branch line from Hull to Hornsea was closed in October 1964 the Station building was left to deteriorate. This is what it looked like by late summer 1985. However, it is a Grade 2 listed building so it could not easily be demolished and it was a rather grand building so it was converted to flats, some of which were available for let as self catering accommodation.  These images show the present state of the buildings and area. The area in front of the old station is now part of the Trans Pennine walk. The station house has been made into two flats with the ground floor being holiday accommodation.

  There are very few class 91 diagrams into York these days but what there are are made up of refurbished and reliveried sets. This is the Kings Cross to York which forms the 12.02 stopping service to Kings Cross.  These are the pacer replacements. A great improvement.
