23 coaches is well short of what would have been available for a gala in earlier years. At least four 7 coach sets plus a 3 coach shuttle at Pickering. For a minimum.

Crowds at the steam gala today. Hundreds on the station this afternoon. Car parks full. Delays on trains, but everything, seemingly, running in TT order. I think today, September 24th, is the first day this year when an all steam timetable has...

And just in case anyone is still wondering if there was a steam ban this year or not… I asked at customer services and was told there had not been a steam ban this year, if there had been there would have been notices up and these never went up....

I don’t think anyone assumes that an operational railway could be salvaged I think everyone knows that it would be extremely difficult and highly unlikely. I think what pretty much everyone knows is that if the current regime are allowed to...

Firstly I don't think any poster here wants the NYMR to fail and I'm not sure why you should think otherwise. Second I had until very recently believed that one of the reasons the NYMR Historical Trust and the PLC had been established as...

I agree with the great majority of your conclusions but I do retain some glimmer of hope that the baton can be passed smoothly from the old to a reconstituted NYMR without endangering both the Light Railway Order and NR agreements to run to...

You’re not wrong in anything you have said. I visited for the first time this year and the disenchantment with how the railway is being run increases the further away you get from Park Street. I didn’t get to Grosmont but I expect it would have...

What radical change? The basic problem is for those that are worried about the future of the line is that there is nothing forthcoming from those in charge about how they are going to escape the current doom loop, other than carrying on as is in...

I don't often get to the NYMR as it's a 5-6 hour each way drive from home and therefore a tricky one to squeeze in around family and work priorities, but I've been there a lot more than any other lines that far away and many closer to me too...

Peat moorland damaged by fire in the NYMNP, the fires of 1976, still haven't fully recovered. So the risk is genuine, but it is no less genuine for more expensive steam trains. If it was too risky to run normal steam trains then it was too risky...

Part of my non railway life is working on local wildlife conservation, including two SSSIs unconnected to railways and one the only site in England where a specific orchid can be found. Second I've worked (admittedly not regularly) with...

So normal trains can't run because of the SSSI, but if a celeb loco turns up then all the nice words about responsibility and the SSSI go out the window? If it's possible to run Tornado by using mitigation measures then why couldn't normal...

True, but that wasn't the case this year - the railway simply didn't have any locos capable of hauling service trains. Even 29 wasn't put out with a banker on the diner as has happened in the past. Lucie made the odd appearance at Grosmont, and...
