Long may this line A Railway Trip from Middlesbrough on Teesside in Cleveland to Whitby in North Yorkshire on the Esk Valley Line which runs through the North York Moors National Park
A two carriage diesel multiple unit on the Esk Valley Railway line passing The North York Moors National Park centre at Danby Lodge as train passes, yet again, over the River Esk.
Lots of train photos via a pictorial journey down the Esk Valley Railway line from Middlesbrough on Teesside in Cleveland to Whitby Town in North Yorkshire, England, following the course of the River Esk for mile after mile. You can start at any station to go up or down the line, note the pictures involve trains travelling in either direction at various points between the stations. The track is owned by network rail and non-steam trains operated by Northern Rail 2007-2008. The North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR) operates a VERY limited number of steam trains between Grosmont and Whitby and sometimes from Grosmont to Battersby but most of their steam trains run from Grosmont <=> Goathland <=> Pickering on the North Yorkshire Moors privately run heritage railway. I've used quite a few of the steam train pictures to illustrate the journey because you can stick your camera out of the window and provide nostalgic views from the past! PLEASE NOTE: For more details of a picture put the mouse over a picture or scroll down. You can also click for the 'previous picture' (on lower link <== or via browser) in the Middlesbrough direction or click on the 'next picture' in the Whitby direction (or on lower ==> link below picture) but you click on a picture, you go to the next one in the Whitby direction. The scenery from the railway train really starts from Nunthorpe onwards but there are interesting places all along the route from Middlesbrough Station on Teesside in Cleveland to Whitby Station in North Yorkshire. So, just clickity click along from location Railway station 00 to 18! CLICK ON A PICTURE FOR THE NEXT ONE Location 0. River Tees and Middlesbrough Town ==> 1. Middlesbrough Station ==> 2.

NYMR Steam locomotive 75029 hauling a Grosmont-Whitby North Yorkshire Moors Railway steam train excursion into Whitby town on the Esk valley Line! Travelling by steam train always seems a pleasure, especially if through wonderful scenery either in England, Scotland, Wales or on holiday in the rest of Europe! Railway trips involving seeing or travelling behind a 'real' steam locomotive in action is something special and there is nothing like the sight and sounds of a steam train to invoke feelings of nostalgia in some of us! * There are many steam heritage railway lines including dining car facilities so you can eat a great meal as scenery passes by so see navigation bar for other railway 'connections'! pictures of trains and locomotives trackside and from on board the trains © Phil Brown docspics landscapes digital images snapshots photographs pictures views scenes scenic views pics photos snaps webshots
