Rosanoski regards the yellow cross in the consulted copy as later colouring of a white area, supported by the black-and-white reprint. It is not presented as a confirmed yellow-cross variant.

Haws specifies the red band as three-quarters of the funnel diameter, touching the black top; the original wording for the top’s dimension is incomplete. After the 1905 takeover, L and Y were added to the flag, producing the version used as the basis for Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway’s flag.
