Poppleton Station Track Layout

Post by Poppleton76 »

I wonder if anyone has the original layout of the yard and coal cells at Poppleton Station ?

Ordnance Survey Maps can be viewed and downloaded from the National Library of Scotland site. https://maps.nls.uk/
I've attached copies of Poppleton Station as it was in 1891 and 1907 and these are subject to the National Library of Scotland's terms of use.
The North Eastern Railway Association https://ner.org.uk/also holds a copy of the Station and Sidings Diagram, showing the measured length of the yards.
