The original NYMR route started at Whitby and ran through to Malton Junction. The southern section from Pickering to Malton has long since passed into history - or has it? There are moves afoot to re-open the line through to Malton and this is constantly in the news - a supermarket group wishing to build across the original formation just south of Pickering station, which if approved, could end any reasonable hope of a return to Malton Juction. This book covers the preserved section from Grosmont to Pickering, other locations include: Whitby; Goathland; Newtondale; Levisham; and, Malton.
