Restored: half-way sign by side of railway near York [York Press]





Date: 11/10/2022

An iconic sign by the side of the railway tracks in countryside near York - marking the half-way point between Edinburgh and London - has been restored at the request of a woman whose father made it almost 90 years ago.

The 50-foot sign stands next to the East Coast Main Line, just north of York railway station, and is a familiar sight to the thousands of rail passengers who travel each day between York and cities and towns to the north, such as Thirsk, Durham, Newcastle and Edinburgh.
