Freight at Doncaster.

-
GB Railfreight's class 66 no. 66 789 has a very smart BR large logo livery and is named "British Rail 1948-1997". It is seen here with a train of empty coal hoppers heading north through the station. This has recently been purchased from DB and was originally numbered 66 250... the last of the original EWS order of class 66s. 

GB Railfreight again... this time loco no. 66 781 with an up container train on the fast line through the station. 

Class 56 no 56 094 heads north on the through freight lines behind the station with a short train of bogie timber wagons. 

Freightliner this time with loco no 66 571 heading north with three bogie tanks. 

DB Cargo loco no 66 134 looks smart in its new DB-Cargo red livery and a train of bogie open wagons also in a new red livery. 

66 134

GB Railfreight no 66 771takes the down through road behind the station with hoppers.

 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.
