Before the railway gets moving, Grosmont MPD is already quietly going about its business.

Five steam locomotives out in the yard, each with its own character. No. 29 and "Repton" are being brought to life, while No. 44806 is being coaled ready to head out and get to work.

There’s plenty of colour too, from the different shades of green to a splash of maroon and black, with a sneaky glimpse of our bright red one-hundred-year-old steam crane in the background.

Just another day beginning at Grosmont.

Why not see for yourself what happens behind the scenes at Grosmont Motive Power Depot with our guided engine shed tours. Spaces still available for dates in September & October:

Did you know the NYMR is a registered charity?

If you're a UK taxpayer, ticking the Gift Aid box on your Donation Fare really is worth doing. It doesn't cost you a penny more, but it means we can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you give, straight from the Government. So your £10 becomes £12.50 for the charity, just like that.

It all goes towards keeping the engines running, the tracks maintained and the heritage of the line alive for years to come. All it takes is a quick tick and a note that you pay UK tax, we handle everything else.

Thank you for electing to Gift Aid your Donation Fare.
