Special Instructions applicable at Particular Places.—Continued. 205,<br />

Staithes Viaduct. —Continued.<br />

Should the train be stopped at Hinderwell, the signalman there must give<br />

the Cancelling signal, on receipt of which the signalman at Staithes will give<br />

the Obstruction removed signal, and, after acknowledgment, the Blocking<br />

back inside home signal, and the following trains must be dealt with in<br />

accordance with paragraph 2. ( O . 721.)<br />

WORKING OF EOULBY AND GRINKLE PARK MINES SIDINGS<br />

BETWEEN GRINKLE AND STAITHES STATION.<br />

These sidings can only be worked by trains from the direction of Grinkle<br />

Station, and only one train' must be allowed to work the Mines at the same<br />

time.<br />

Drivers working to these sidings will be supplied with an Occupation<br />

Key instead of a Tablet, also the key of the Ground Frame Box. The<br />

Occupation Key locks and unlocks the King Lever of the Ground Frame,<br />

which, when pulled over, releases the locking in the Frame. The Signalman<br />

at Grinkle will instruct the Guard as to whether Tablet working is to<br />

be restored between Grinkle and Staithes as soon as the train reaches the<br />

Sidings.<br />

Whether tablet working is to be restored between Grinkle or Staithes or not :—<br />

On arrival at the Ground Frame, the Fireman will obtain the keys from<br />

the Driver, and by means of the Occupation Key release the lock fixed on<br />

the Kina Lever of the Ground Frame, pull it over and set the points to<br />

allow the train to enter the sidings, leaving the Occupation Key in the•<br />

Ground Frame Lock, the Driver wil then draw the whole of the train toReception<br />

Line. In no case must the van or any portion of the train<br />

be left on the Main Line, but must be drawn to the Reception Line at the<br />

Mines to be worked, and the van left between the safety points and the points<br />

leading to the empty sidings. After the empty wagons have been disposed<br />

of, the van must be drawn by the engine and brought to a stand at a point<br />

where it will gravitate to the sidings adjoining the laden sidings, and after<br />

the engine is detached and has entered the laden siding, the van brake must<br />

be released and the van run to the required position. A post painted white<br />

has been provided at each Mines to enable drivers to see when the trains<br />

are clear within the safety points.<br />

Should it be necessary to transfer wagons from one Mines to the other,<br />

the Engine must in all cases be at the Staithes end when on the Main Line.<br />

If it be known that the telephonic communication has failed before the<br />

train leaves Grinkle, the train must be detained until there is a sufficient<br />

margin to make the journey to the Mines and hack without restoring Tablet<br />

communication.<br />

A wall lamp shewing a white light has been fixed on the end of the Platelayers'<br />

Cabin, situated at the west end of Twizzie Gill Curve (195 yards<br />

north of the Ground Frame operating the points leading to the Mines), so<br />

as to assist drivers working to the Mines to bring their trains to a stand at<br />

the Ground Frame during darkness.
