Grosmont Station Activity

Grosmont Station is usually quite busy and like the others on the line is very rewarding to visit.

A great value second-hand book shop and the platform shop are well worth visiting.

Goathland (Aidensfield) Station

A visit to Goathland is always rewarding. The small shops always have plenty of 'Heartbeat' merchandise - and although the TV series has (sadly) been discontinued for new episodes - it's good to see where it was filmed.

A busy station as we usually have two trains arriving close together.

New Bridge Level Crossing

Spent some time here and met up with a young couple (Claire and James) and chatted, so time passed quickly.

Pickering Station

It's difficult to have a 'favourite' station on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway - but Pickering does have the advantage of having a good little shopping area, and a market on Mondays.

Lavender Farm -Terrington - Near York

A lovely area and this farm makes an ideal visit to give us a change.

Carried on in to the outskirts of York but decided not to go all the way in to the centre.

Levisham Station - NYMR

We always enjoy a run down to the Station at Levisham. Very peaceful, friendly station staff, and the resident railway artist make this a must on our agenda.

NYMR Grosmont Station

Another day enjoying the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR)

Grosmont is an ideal station as there is always plenty of activity, out with the normal traffic.

There is also the workshops and shop to give added things to do.

Misty - and Her Partial Walk Tonight

Poor Misty, started her walk over the field but the cows were again present tonight - and why not.

So we headed in the other direction so as not to disturb them.

But they had other ideas and seemed to want to join in with us.

Getting brave they started running towards myself and Misty so we retreated back to our own wee garden.

But these guys were determined to be part of the game.
