Notes :
(1) Due
to the slow, (very slow due to a small bore pipe being used
for filling of tender), rate of watering 5305 at Scarborough, & the
subsequent 75 + mins late running of the train, the decision was made to miss
out the Harrogate Circle, turn 777 at Leeds, & return to York via Church
Fenton.
(2) York
Controls further attempts to get the special nearer to right time saw the train
run to Selby, from York, via Colton Jn Hambleton Nth Jn Hambleton East
Jn Selby, instead of the booked path via Gascoigne Wood.
