Doncaster... HSTs and not so HSTs.

LNER HST power car brings up the rear of a northbound express. 

This Great Western HST set is currently on hire to Hull Trains (running with 5 trailers) acting as cover for the class 180s which are going through an unreliable patch. It is seen here in the works yard. 

An up LNER express charges through the station on the through roads. 
Another power car on hire... this time to LNER from East Midlands Trains. It is seen here at the head of a northbound express heading for Leeds. 
A Hull Trains class 180 leaves platform 1 with an up train. 

Another Hull Trains class 180 with a down train.

 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.
