[edit] York to Scarborough line
I see you are interested in this.
I'd be interested in a bit of history - was it part of the NER? (The article on [[NER]] suggests not - it mentions Malton to Driffield railway, but not York to Scarborough/.

Do you have a source for the opening date of Huttons Ambo? According to Cobb (2003, pp.413-414), Huttons Ambo station opened in 1885 and closed in 1930 (although the line opened in 1845)
He has Barton (formerly Barton Hill), Kirkham/Karkham abbey as opening in 1853/1875 resp.
Who is right I wonder?
Cobb, Col M. H. (2003) The Railways of Great Britain: A Historical Atlas; Ian Allan Publishing Ltd; ISBN 07110-3002-2 Huttons Ambo: pp.413-414 & Plate VII (vol.2)
The York to Scarborough branch line was built by the York and North Midland Railway and opened in 1845; it was the Y&NM that became a founding part of the NER - so yes the Scarborough branch was most definately part of the NER. The Malton and Driffield Railway although much smaller than the three generally acknowledged founding companies of the NER never the less joined the NER at its foundation in 1854.
There is a Wikipedia entry for the York to Scarborough Line but it is barely a stub, with no historical information. XTOV 16:54, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Scarborough North Bay Railway
Hi - what are your reasons for deleting references to the Cleethorpes Light Railway in this article? – Tivedshambo (talk) 16:23, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
- In the absense of any obvious reasons, I've reverted it. Please discuss on the article's talk page if you have any concerns. – Tivedshambo (talk) 07:58, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
-
- This page makes it clear that the Cleethorpes Light Railway has the lease for the railway for ten years. If you have any information to the contrary, please cite it rather than removing it. Also the above link seems to be the official website of the railway - www.nbr.org.uk is merely a pointer to a Fotopic site. Although relevant to the page, it should not be used for reference purposes.
-
- I'll revert this page again - please do not keep changing it (whether logged on or anonymously). – Tivedshambo (talk) 23:31, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

-
- If the anonymous edits weren't you then I apologise - I'd assumed they were as they made the same changes. I'll put a message on the IP in question and also on the article's talk page. – Tivedshambo (talk) 15:42, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Grinkle
Strange. One moment it is red and the next it is blue. Anyway, to the point, did it close in 1939, as you have put in the text, or 1958, as you have put in the infobox? One of these needs to be corrected. Simply south (talk) 18:46, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oops! It was 1939 - sorry! Svitapeneela (talk) 18:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
