Attended a murder mystery trip. Good value for money, great food and a wonderful old steam locomotive to take us on our journey. More

A really interesting day trip from Pickering to Whitby. A day rover ticket allows one to get on and off at the 3/4 stops en-route. More

Took a group of 47 adults on the NYMR from Pickering to Grosmont. A very pleasant journey. Would have liked to have got off at Goathland & watched the train from above & explore the station used in Heartbeat & Harry Potter then boarded again & gone all the way to Whitby. More

Philip Benham and his team do an amazing job running this railway but adhering to the timetable is not one of their strong points. Never mind, there's lots to see. More
