The Queen at the Station Hotel, at Hull, 1854. Queen Victoria visits Yorkshire by train. 'Amid the firing of artillery and shouts of welcome, which were taken up and repeated by ten thousand hearty Yorkshire voices in and around the station, her Majesty stepped upon the platform...Preceded by the Mayor and Sheriff, and leaning upon the arm of the Prince Consort, her Majesty advanced towards the apartments prepared for the Royal visitors in the Station Hotel, the entrance to which opens directly upon the platform...The railway station was brilliantly lit up, so that none of the details of the pageant were lost upon the eye...As the Royal couple passed along at the head of this cortege, they were enthusiastically greeted by the gaily-dressed spectators who filled the galleries on either side, and graciously bowed their acknowledgments'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
