    Nice to hear the Northern accent again. I started my 45 year footplate career at Kings cross and we would venture into those strange lands "up North". 😃

    The amount and depth of knowledge the driver possessed about the line was incredible what a professional, I was very impressed.

    An excellent resource! As a former train driver, it was like going through road learning school again! Thanks!

    A most interesting view along with part 1 of the NYMR Esk valley operations. Especially with Chris's [the Driver] commentary highlighting various aspects of the route. it's also most interesting how various of the bridges embankments and cuttings between Grosmont and Battersby were built to accommodate a second track. As this second line was never installed other than as passing loops in some stations. The Grosmont Whitby section was originally double track, up until the eighties as a left over from the old days when the line ran through to Pickering and Rillington on the Scarborough line.

    Do you know if NR have a plan to replace some of the old bowstring bridges that have the 10 mph speed restrictions?

    Nice to have a run on a 1250 again. Signed and drove these machines for many miles working all classes of traffic in the 70s/80s. Was one of the Vac brake settings selected on brake changeover switch as sounded as though only one compressor running, took a long time to rebuild air Res ? Good locos, many memories, what I wouldn't give for one more driving turn on a 25 !!
