An everyday scene of the era at Hull station showing the mail being loaded into a BG (Brake Ganwayed) Mk. I coach at the front of the 1A28 16.30 Hull to London King’s Cross. Deltic 55022 ‘Royal Scots Grey’ will lead the train. Gone are the days of bags of mail being loaded and unloaded from trains with them all going by road now. However, there is continued talk of mail returning to rail and with ever-increasing environmental and climate targets to be met this really makes sense!
There is an audio recording of this event on my Youtube channel, see.....
