Work in progress[edit]

[1] expanded , inline references.

There are two gaps in the text where I need to add descriptions of the two surveys
I will expand (a bit) the history after 1854 later
I will look at the refs and tidy later on.
Haven't proof read it fully yet either
I;ve removed the list of shareholders and replaced it with a list of directors - there's a link to a longer list of shareholders though.

There are some mysterys

The letter to the Leeds Mercury mentioned in the previous revision seems to be given three different dates separated by about a decade
Some of the books, which should be reliable seem to be a bit mixed up about the original stations - therefor I've the reference that has a timetable reprinted for 1835.
I'm still confused about "York junction" - was there a station in 1834? or soon after- was there a station before the Y&NMR was built - maybe demolished too?
Edward Robert Petrie is listed as a director - all I could find was Robert Petre, 10th Baron Petre who died in 1809 ?
