A period notice board at Ulceby station complete with s large blue enamel running in sign above. The posters include a full timetable (a 'Paytrain' guide as BR markets it) for the Cleethorpes to Newark route. The Special Notice to the right is the revised timetable for the New Holland and Barton-on-Humber branch that will follow the closure of the Humber ferry less than a week after this photograph was taken. The timetable revision includes the withdrawal of all services to and from New Holland Pier that was to close as part of the withdrawal of the ferry. Finally, the poster to the left was advertising rail links to Europe via ferries off course as this was still many years before the opening of the Channel Tunnel.
