With regard to the Pullmans going to Whitby, the K1 took them there in 10/10/1999 as seen here, but I forget what the occasion was. [ATTACH] Peter

I had a memorable run to Battersby one glorious spring evening firing to Fletch (the late John Fletcher) on Tornado. We only went from Grosmont, not Whitby, and as you say it was a short lived experiement but what a lovely evening turn it was - a...

@5944’s post and my response seem to have sparked a lot of comment. I used the term park and ride and period shouldn’t have. What I think both of us are saying is than opportunity has been missed. The end of October is unlikely to be a time when...

I think people are getting hung up on the term “park and ride”. Does the NYMR provide a sensible park and ride service to Whitby in the sense you’d understand it in other major cities? Of course not, it couldn’t provide a viable service on...

Will be visiting North Yorkshire in mid September so thought I'd take a look at ticket prices. The website is a tad confusing to put it mildly.

I think the lack Northern service changes is a bit of a red herring - the Esk Valley line is very badly capacity constrained, and Northern have limited flexibility.

Much as I would like the Railway to benefit, the Whitby bus operated park and ride is very useful and reasonably priced, £5.50 for a family of 4 for example. I have used it myself when I knew Whitby would be busy, and can recommend it. It does a...

Given that many people do drive directly to the event, hence the parking chaos in Whitby, it is possible. It's not necessarily the best idea, but it is possible. I don't consider a 2 hour train ride a viable alternative. A shuttle from Grosmont,...

I could understand a Grosmont to Whitby park and ride, but to add the whole line journey in makes it nonsensical. Say my three friends and I want to attend the event in Whitby. We can either drive to Whitby, and park wherever we can, or park at...

It is not a park and ride service. That's silly nickname given to it by those who don't like the Whitby operation. Do people say Bishops Lydeard to Minehead is a park and ride? Do the WSR volunteers get shirty when people go to Minehead and get...
