I was born in Hull in 1950 but was taken away in 1956 and never saw it again until a few years ago. I'm now trying to piece together memories of my childhood. I saw timnuttall2000's video of the Withernsea to Hull line and was fascinated to see images of a ride which my mother used to take me on. I'm particularly interested in the buildings seen from the train. Is there a higher resolution version of the film? Presumably one at normal speed would be?

Thanks for posting the link for the footage of the Withernsea - Hull train...brilliant...a journey I made frequently as a child  :D

As there are a few people with interests in or a connection to the railways I would like to mention a forthcoming Railway Exhibition at the Carnegie Heritage Centre scheduled for Saturday February 25th.

We would be particularly interested to see any Railway Memorabilia and related items of interest:

I will post a flyer of the event here a bit nearer the time.
