Having travelled down the 1375ft long Pier from New Holland Pier Head, A Class 114 2-Car DMU formed of E56043 & E50001 in refurbished livery, stands at New Holland Town with a service to Cleethorpes on Sunday 28th September 1980. With the opening of the Humber Suspension Bridge in June 1981, and the subsequent withdrawal of the ferry service from New Holland Pier to Hull, the stations and the pier were all closed on June 24th 1981.

A refurbished Class 114 DMU formed of cars E56043 & E50001 arrives at New Holland Town with a service from Cleethorpes to New Holland Pier on September 28th 1980. There is much of interest in this view, including a pair of lower quadrant signals, the North to West curve towards Barton-On-Humber, Barrow Road Signal box and the level crossing giving vehicular access to the Pier and the ferry service across the Humber to Hull. Martyn Hilbert.
Vehicle: 50001
In refurbished livery, Class 114 two-car DMU formed of E50001 & E56043 was stood at a run-down looking New Holland Town with a service from New Holland Pier to Cleethorpes on Sunday September 28th 1980. The station here and the 1,375 Yard Pier and the station at the Pier Head (and the connecting ferry service across the River Humber to Hull) was closed some nine months after this image was recorded. The last day of service was June 1st 1981, commensurate with the opening of the Humber Suspension Bridge. This place was in a time-warp, with BR Eastern Region blue enamel signage and mechanical signalling including some lower quadrants. This was my one and only visit to New Holland Pier, and my regret is that I did not have a ride on the DMU, photograph the Ferry, or by a ticket as a souvenir. Martyn Hilbert.
