@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...

Sad of course, but inevitable. Today was another truly awful day, just making things even worse re lineside fire risk. Bryan

Important Service Update – Steam Services Following advice from the fire service and in light of the current hot, dry weather conditions, prolonged lack of rainfall and the increased risk of lineside fires, the Bluebell Railway has taken the...

I noticed on one of the FB rail groups a couple of the "Seasoned Complainers" are commenting. Other than that it looks reasonably possitive from the locals.

Thanks Harold & Mark, Tomorrow Thursday and Friday should see the Northbridge Street level crossing concrete slabs put in place followed by fitting the new rails in the slab of grooves. Then next week is all about tarmac, barrier and assocataed...

On the point of providing a service as a 'park and ride' as a heritage line, personally, I will always look to use the train if one is available. I appreciate I am an enthusiast, but there must be others of a similar mind. With a brief mention...

Here and here. Oddly enough, although the first one is flagged "Posted 1 week ago", it wasn't there first thing this morning (I checked). Still, I'm glad to see work has started. I hope the locals are not too discomfited by the road closure. Noel

I think the counter to that point is that at this event, this isn't a crowd necessaraily going for a day out in Whitby. They are there for the goth weekend, which happens to be in Whitby. In a similar vein to the argument about the CVR and the...

The other question is would your regular target market even consider visiting Whitby on that weekend. Good luck to those that like it, but it looks like a weekend to be avoided with large crowds.

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...

I tend to agree with this. If it were a simple park and ride operation you'd think people would be better off using the Northern Rail options/stations. If Grosmont parking was enhanced for such an operation I imagine a lot of customers would just...

“Park and Ride” is a somewhat cynical description of the offer of park in Pickering, then take train to Whitby for a day out, then return. It is the language of those not keen on the Whitby extension, but is not a ln entirely fair description of...

It all depends on the personal situation of each group of passengers. Someone who is well off (and can thus afford the fare), and who has several small children with them, or has some other mobility constraint (and thus can't walk a long way),...

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...
