After such a lovely start to the day in the East Midlands, by the time we reached the east coast, the sun had gone in and it was just seven degrees making it feel more like February than mid-April! Under dismal skies at Bridlington, 158867 passes the semaphores and the signal box as it leaves with the 14.58 Scarborough to Sheffield. Despite appearances, only the track in the foreground that leads to the south facing bay and the two tracks to the extreme right are in use. Despite retaining their semaphores, the sidings to the left have not seen a train over them for some time!
