The steam train winds its way from Pickering over the rolling heather, through valleys and over hills to many picturesque villages all the way to Whitby and is ideal for a special day out. In December they even have a themed Christmas Santa Special on the steam train. One of the highlights on the calendar in Pickering is the annual War Weekend, where as well as battle re-enactments, there is live music and the town seems to slip back in time.
