Notes :
(1)
62731 on the rear?
(2) Headcode on the Falsgrave Jn to Whitby West Cliff leg was ??61 (as seen on
photograph, but part-obscured) - was this used throughout?
Howard Cook comments: I would concur with suggestion that the A8
joined At Falsgrave Jn. Reporting code generally used by 62731 but not showing
at Kirkbymoorside and correctly missing on arrival at Whitby Town, bearing out
the above.
