- Yesterday's bicycle route from Hull to Withernsea Railway line 🚵🌳🌲😊
The Hull and Holderness Railway was a branch line railway in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England that connected the city of Kingston upon Hull with the North Sea coast at Withernsea.
An early proposal for a railway eastwards from Hull into Holderness was made in 1845 by the York and North Midland Railway for a line from a junction on a line to the east Dock (Victoria Dock) at Drypool to Patrington via Hedon the Patrington line was not included in the resultant acts of 1846.
A second attempt at a line was promoted by Hull businessman Anthony Bannister, with the intention of linking Hull with the rich agricultural area of South Holderness, and the development of a coastal village (Withernsea) into a new seaside resort. The silting up of Patrington and Hedon Havens was another incentive for the construction of a line, since it could no longer be used for transportation by water.
A prospectus was issued in 1852, and the "Hull and Holderness Railway Act" passed 1853. Construction of the line in the flat and open Holderness plain was rapid and the line of about 18 miles (29 km) was opened on 24 June 1854.
Description and operations
The line was originally built as a single track line, except sections at Hedon and near Ryehill. At Withernsea (which in 1851 had a population of only 109) a hotel, the "Station Hotel" (later called "Queen's Hotel") was built.
The line began at the York and North Midland Railway's Victoria Dock station and ran east, passing Hedon to the north; it then turned south-east, passing Burstwick to the south, halfway between the village and Ryehill, then the line passed Keyingham to the north and then east and south to Patrington, the last village of any note before Withernsea, which was to the north -east, and in which the line terminated.
Up till 1859 the Hull and Holderness Railway operated its own trains, but from 1860 the line was operated by the North Eastern Railway on lease rental, and in 1862 the same company acquired the line; a short connecting chord was built that allowed trains to run through onto the dock branch, and from 1864, services ran to Paragon station in the city center via the Victoria Dock Branch Line.
Closure
Passenger service ended following the Beeching Report. The last passenger train ran on 19 October 1964. Goods traffic continued to use the whole line until 3 May 1965, after which it only operated between Hull and Hedon railway station. This service continued until 3 June 1968, the goods service to Marfleet lasting until 1972.

Excellent! Planning to ride it soon, so the film was very helpful and interesting to see the old footage.
Thank that was very interesting . May give this track ago. In my weekend off .
Miło się na to patrzy jak ktoś jedzie rowerem i nagrywa super filmik oby więcej takich ... I te porównanie super szacun .... 🤩🤩🤩
Lubię oglądać takie porównania jak było kiedyś z tym jak jest obecnie.
Super 👍 i ta wspaniała muzyka🙂.
Pozdrawiam😊
Its a pity that the section round Patrington was completely lost to farm land and necesitates using the road upgraded a little would make a superb easy and safe way into Hull and vice versa.
Ekstra pomysł na montaż ,
inny świat był i jest na tym samym miejscu
Muza świetnie pasuje
,duży ciekawy opis
Same plusy 😄👍1
Dziękuję to było super
🤗
Very good video, is the road surface good enough for a road bike? Some parts don't seem to have any asphalt. I would like to travel from hull to burstwick only.
Bardzo fajny filmik . Wszystko ładnie i przejrzyscie opisane . Ta kolej to byla bardzo mocno rozbudowana .
Pozdrawiam
Years ago we did a sponsored walk with Brownie's from patrington to withernsea on the old railway line.
I cycled this route April 2019 and December 2019
Super montaż... Pozdrawiam z, Wiednia, zapraszam do mnie i oczywiście zostawiam suba i 👍
Is the railway line still accessible from Patrington, you appear to have resorted to the road ?
No, unfortunately the line has now been overtaken by a farmer and their is now no access from Winestead > Patrington > Withernsea.
It would be better off with a railway line, NOW THAT WOULD BE FAR SENSIBLE. IT WOULD RELEASE PRESSURE ON GRIDLOCKED ROADS.
If you are going to put a video on here with names and places, PLEASE SPELL THEM CORRECTLY.
Really interesting and good film ,ruined by the utterly awful 'music'.....😕
