1962. Booking Office clerk Alan Brooks in the doorway to the Booking Office, the sign in British Railways' North Eastern Region's colour. In the early 1960s in addition to the Station Master there was his clerk, three Booking Office Clerks and three platform staff. The round the clock goods sidings employed another 33 shift workers. Today the goods yard has gone and the station is unstaffed since 1985 and the unusual Grade ll three storey station building is disused.
