Steamed up in Whitby


This engine hardly needs any commentary, except to say that steam trains were reinstated on the Whitby to Middlesbrough line a few years ago, to the delight of local enthusiasts as well as tourists. I don't know if this train has done the whole journey or only the Grosmont to Whitby run. 

If you have never visited the North York Moors Railway site, don't miss this opportunity, but don't reach for your pens when you come to the Levisham entry; I've already informed them about the who's / whose typo.

This is one of several Martin Ashburner photographs he sent this evening; it was difficult to choose which one to post, so the criteria were to be able to see something of the town and to have some steam.
