68030 Black Douglas passes Scampston on 16 October 2023 with the 1U52 12:48 Scarborough to Manchester Piccadilly TransPennine service. In the background is Outgang Road level crossing, otherwise known as High Gate House level crossing, after the house on the right. There was once a junction here for a chord allowing trains from Scarborough to access the Pickering branch. The line from nearby Rillington Junction to Pickering closed in 1965, but this junction and the chord line towards Pickering was only in use for a few years, and had gone by 1880. |
