During recording the movements of Black 5 44932 on "The Tynesider" steam charter, I found myself with a few hours spare so drove over to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway which operates services between the market town of Pickering and the seaside and fishing town of Whitby.
Unfortunately, temperatures on the moors were exceptionally high and there was a severe fire risk, so services over the moors were restricted to diesel operation only. However, the service from Grosmont down the Esk valley into Whitby were still operated by steam so I took the opportunity to see my second Black 5 of the day, LMS 5428 "Eric Treacy" which I caught twice at Sleights station, once heading uphill to Grosmont and tender first downhill to Whitby.
This sequence is finished off with a couple of diesels operating the services over the moors, which offer spectacular scenery.
