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...

Iirc Whitby has a Steam Punk weekend? Not to run a service for that one would be crazy.

Car parking in Whitby over Goth weekend is a nightmare. Providing a park and ride from Pickering with a bit of advertising would surely have filled the trains. Not rocket science.

Just a few that I tend to keep an eye: The KWVR always state in the main season timetable which are expected to be steam and which will be diesel. More often than not the backup is also a steam engine. [ATTACH] The SVR [ATTACH] The Great...

As I understand it the NYMR’s plan is to get the Footplate Inspectorate trained upband sufficiently experienced first. They will then start to roll out a training plan for other footplate crew which will start off with classroom training in the...
