Class 101 DMU, unidentified working, Whitby station To take this photograph I was standing on platform two which was to close within a couple of years when a huge rationalisation of the trackwork in and around Whitby was to take place. All traffic was to be moved to platform one with platform two truncated at the end of the building. However, in better times the platform was reinstated, lengthened and straightened out to become the charter platform seeing daily summer services extended from the North Yorkshire Moors Grosmont station. In this 1981 scene, the three-car Class 101 DMU will depart heading along the delightful and winding Esk Valley route to Middlesborough and possibly then on to Darlington.
