Description:
The North Yorkshire Moors railway is a 24 mile preserved line running between Pickering and Whitby. It opened in 1835 and closed in 1965. A dedicated group of enthusiasts worked hard at bringing the railway back to life and passenger services on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway commenced in April 1973. The stations along the line have each been restored to reflect different dates in the history of the railway.
