I went on holiday to Yorkshire in summer 2023 (I think). We, as a train loving family, went to a variety of heritage lines. I'll talk here about the NYMR and the KWVR. In the case of the former, we stayed for a week near Grosmont. In the latter...

Panniers often have a reputation, one which probably caused by being used on heavy trains. 75069 had some issues last time it was used, it's getting on a bit in its current ticket.

I found it fairly easy to do so. Descending the bank from Goathland to Grosmont, once up to speed I’d drop the vacuum to about 15-16” which would be about the balancing braking to keep the speed steady. Some slight adjustment was always...

I think they stated in their members magazine a few years ago that they wouldn't be entertaining 9681 visiting any other railways so you've done well to prise it away from the Forest!

9681 will be our 2nd guest locomotive, courtesy of the DFLG and DFR. A huge thanks to the guys at the DFLG for this who’ve been superb to deal with. 9681 has very rarely left the DFR, perhaps a handful of times in its life at best. Certainly one...

I seem to recall repeated claims that the WSR needed the odd half million or so every year for a backlog of maintenance, without which it would have to close; no reports of any such moneys being received; and yet the railway apparently still...

It is critical. We have a duty not only to our customers, but to our neighbours, too. Farms right along the line have crops in tinder dry fields right now. In one area, we have flax planted right next to the line. I am told that if that were to...

I think 37688 is the only Whitby diesel they have at the moment. You wouldn't want to send it to Pickering in case 44806 gave up in section. Except..... it's being sent to Pickering on the 1330. Interesting to see that it's diesel on the diner...

The last time I did this was during a 3 day break nr Teesside with an old mate from our days at the Poly there. We got Gt Ayton - Whitby returns, jump off at Grosmont, did a round walk to Goathland and back, just in time for a train onwards to...

Appreciate rising food costs, but £17.50 makes for a very expensive treat bag which you still need to pick up from the cafe. The orange juice resembles the stuff you get from a travelodge vending machine too. Would love to know how many of these...
