A while back I took a trip up to the NYMR, also known as The North Yorkshire Moors railways to see one of the countries top heritage railways in action. I've finally gotten round to editing some of the footage from that trip so now you can also experience how steam traction is being kept alive in this part of the country.
With a wide range of both steam and diesel locomotives in action, there's never a dull moment on the NYMR. Whether it's trains passing each other at Levisham, locomotives shunting at Grosmont, or mainline running on the line to Whitby - there's always something going on at The North Yorkshire Moors Railways.
Chapters:
00:00 - Intro

05:13 - Class 31 at Whitby
06:37 - Trains Passing At Levisham
08:16 - 9F On Steam Test
10:57 - Black 5 At Pickering
13:57 - Busy Times At Grosmont
19:09 - Trains Passing At Goathland
21:10 - Repton At Whitby

(Please note, some sequences were filmed on different days from multiple angles with footage compiled to help "tell a story". Diehard trainspotters may notice some inconsistencies. There's no need to point these out, I'm already aware but if this bothers you watching another video might be better solution.)
Thanks for watching 🚂
The NYMR is my favourite heritage railway. I’ve been going since I was little, and it’s still great to this day. They don’t have the most interesting selection of locos and rolling stock, but you get some beautiful scenery.
I suppose how interesting the loco roster is depends on what your baseline is. I volunteer at a railway that until recently didn't have any tender engines at all so seeing a Black 5, 9F, J27 and Schools Class (among others) all working together was pretty exciting for me. Thanks for watching 😃
Beautiful job, That Model Railway Guy! How I enjoy these visits to heritage railways, and the up close and personal views of some of the iconic machinery. Many thanks.
It is good to get out and about every once in a while and see the real life locomotives in action! Thanks for watching 😃
I am very happy to be able to voluteer here, I’m glad you had a good time!
Awesome, it's a fantastic line! I have a few friends who work at the railway so it was good to catch up with them and hear what it's like running the railway on a daily basis. Thanks for watching 😃
Nice video. That shunter 12139 is very similar to the English built NS class 600 shunters in the Netherlands. Made by English Electric between 1950 and 1957 some of these are still used by small private companies and some have been shipped back to the UK. These were the only shunters with connecting rods on the wheels (don’t know if this correct English) in the Netherlands. Quality was probably very good in the fifties.😀
Yes it's a Class 12 - the Class 8, 9, 10, 11 & 12 were incredibly numerous in the UK and some still even remain in use (outside of preservation) to this day! They're an incredible work horse and great for any heritage line that needs stuff shunting without any fuss. They pretty much nailed the design straight out of the gate with these. Thanks for watching 😃
Great old steam trains - unbeatable and nostalgia as I lived right in front of line asa kid, brings back wonderful memories
Yeah it's always good to see steam trains working in real life, but seeing them somewhere like the NYMR is particularly special. Thanks for watching 😃
I recently went on a trip to the UK, visited the NRM aswell as the NYMR, both amazing experiences. Visiting the NRM was the first time I saw a british steam engine myself. And then getting to ride with one on the NYMR was just great. Probably one of the best trips I've ever been on.
Awesome! It's actually incredible how much of our railway history we have preserved in the UK, not just as museum pieces but also as working examples. Packing both of those in back to back must have been amazing. Thanks for watching 😃
Great video, in my opinion it's the best preserved line in the UK.
It's definitely up there as one of the best. Was nice is that each heritage railway really has it's own unique selling point. Thanks for watching 😃
The Schools Class reminded me of Airfix days, which go back to the '60s. I was almost settled on a modest, 1:76 scale layout but now a 1:1 scale, garden railway, seems so.o.o appealing.🤣
Wonderful editing. Very much enjoyed this video!
Amazing! I have to admit I have a Hornby Schools Class which I don't run nearly enough as I should do... time to get it out on the layout again I think! Thanks for watching 😃
I’ve been waiting to see a working schools class for years. Every time I go to the Bluebell or North Yorks they are both in the works or out of service. Time to go back to Yorkshire…. Great video. I love going to Whitby behind a steam locomotive.
It's nice that Repton is able to run on the Whitby section. It's funny, I saw it at the NYMR years ago as a teenagers so I now associate the Schools Class more with Yorkshire than I do the Southern Region now... blasphemy I know! Thanks for watching 😃
I visited a few weeks ago after having not done so in over a decade. The staff were anazingly friendly and the route pretty spectacular. Really enjoyed my visit and watching your video too.
I'm sure I saw that 31 at Derby back in the day painted in Fragonset livery...
Ah brilliant! Yeah I have to agree with that, the staff were all really friendly during my visit too. Thanks for watching 😃
Went once amazing railway
It is pretty amazing! There's so much going on all the time - what would be a huge gala for most railways is just a normal Tuesday at the NYMR! Thanks for watching 😃
It is a wonderful railway, all the stations are well preserved and well kept, and there's always something going on there, I'm glad you enjoyed yourself there, it is a perfect example of a heritage railway 😀
There's definitely a sense of efficiency and purpose at the NYMR, especially around Grosmont where locos are moving back and forth between the MPD fairly frequently. I've never seen anything else that comes close on any other heritage line. Thanks for watching 😃
love the 31 , such a handsome beast , love the way the body sides dropdown between the bogies - elegant !
I have to admit that Class 31s are growing on me, we have one at Spa Valley Railway too. Thanks for watching 😃
I loved my trip to NYMR too. I did a video of a train filling up with water at Pickering. Also TMC the model centre is just down the road from Goathland station . 😊
Ah brilliant, yes they often fill up at Pickering as the line is very long. Yeah definitely worth stopping in at TMC if you do the walk from Goathland to Grosmont. Thanks for watching 🤩
Great video thanks. Nice to see a heritage railway in action
You definitely get a lot of action at the NYMR! Thanks for watching 😃
So much fun watching real trains run now and then. That diesal at the beginning looks just like that TT120 you just got is it? Wish here in America we had more heritage steam lines to see. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
GOD BLESS 🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖
It's not quite the same, the diesel at the start is a Class 31 where the TT:120 model is a Class 50... if you saw them side by side the Class 50 is noticeably bigger. I believe Hornby are working on a Class 31 for TT though so watch this space! Thanks for watching 😃
Great to see the real loco's in action, did they find out why the signal had failed?
I don't know the reason myself but they got it working again pretty quickly as it didn't affect any other trains that day. This wasn't the only signal that failed during my visit either (just the only one we caught on camera) and sometimes it can be something as simple as the weather causing something to not work correctly. Thanks for watching 😃
My favourite place. Been twice this year and already trying to twist the wife’s arm to go back with the bairn.
Amazing! It's a little bit far for me to get too so not sure when I'll be able to go back but I certainly made the most of it while I was there. Thanks for watching 😃
The NYMR is featured with behind the scenes footage on TV in Australia at the moment with my Wife and I enjoying each weekly show. We would love to visit there someday. 👍🚂
Awesome! We had a similar programme over here in the UK that ran for a few series... I don't know if it's the same one but it was certainly good to see behind the scenes at the railway. Thanks for watching 😃
Excellent :)
Glad yo enjoyed it, thanks for watching 😃
Great video. Out of interest, how many different cameras / cameramen did you use to get all the shots?
Some sequences were filmed with two cameras but others were filmed different days from different positions and edited together to look like one. Thanks for watching 😃
@@ThatModelRailwayGuy - Many thanks for the reply. It was very well done
