 Hull Dairycoates MPD - North Eastern Railway/LNER/BR - was one of (if not the) biggest locomotive depots in Britain, comprising of 5 roundhouses and a 5 road straight shed at its peak, and provided the motive power for the majority of freight trains in and around the area. In the mid-1950s it had a new roof fitted and lost the roof over 2 of the turntables. It closed in the 1970s and left Botanic Gardens as the only railway depot in Hull. |

 Dairycoates (West) signal box, with the "Tin can" bridge in the background. The latter's name was a reference to the nearby Metal Box factory. |

| "Tin can" bridge, installed to allow passenger trains to avoid the busy junction below. Still in use, although the junction is a pale shadow of it's former self. |
