This was such a major event in the area that extra trains were laid on to bring revellers to the town from miles around.
Previously, an extra four complete 7-car trains were added to the fleet, bringing the total to 63.
Winter timetable of 1937-1939 included one extra train, which stopped at all the stations.
However, this extra train was only four carriages long instead of the normal eight.
Many extra trains thus had to be added to the schedule to accommodate this increased demand.
"I doubt the extra trains are going to make a difference."
There is plenty of room on their tracks to add extra trains.
At peak times, a number of extra trains from Hull terminate/start here.
There are 2 new platforms planned at the station to accommodate extra trains from this line.
There will be extra trains on the 4, 5 and D lines.
