The North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR) is one of the most popular
heritage railways in Britain. Since 1973 it has transported hundreds of
thousands of visitors in preserved steam and diesel-hauled trains
between Pickering and Grosmont through an ancient landscape of unmatched
beauty. When those trains started to run regularly to and from Whitby in
2007, it revived a service started back in 1836 by the Whitby &
Pickering Railway Company.
This copiously illustrated book tells the story of a truly fascinating
railway from its origins in the 1830s right through to the challenges,
compromises and changing proprieties inherent in running a heritage line
in the 21st century.
