Yorkshire boasts a wealth of charming steam railways, where you can take to the rails and experience a little taste of a bygone era.
More than 30 locomotives are based at this heritage railway in Haworth, and there are a number of steam and diesel railcar services which run every weekend in winter, making for a fun day out.
Stretching for 18 miles through the heart of the North York Moors National Park, visitors can travel to the likes of Pickering, Goathland, Levisham and Whitby, at the UK's largest preserved heritage railway.
This popular attraction in Scarborough has been operating trains since 1931, travelling from Peasholm Park to Scalby Mills Station, with steam locomotives running on selected days throughout the summer.
