     Reference to Flamborough brings to mind an amusing comedy of errors, which although not strictly a matter of station-naming, at least concerns station names. The actual name was Marton for Flamborough, and, by some error, it appeared in Bradshaw, at the end of 1858, as Marton from Flamborough. After two or three months, this was evidently noticed, and instructions given to correct it, but unfortunately the correction appeared as Marton or Flamborough, which remained undetected for several months more.
