THERE is light at the end of the tunnel for a heritage railway after it revealed it will reopen from Saturday, May 15.
North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR) will be operating two trains to Whitby every day, as well as an intermediate service between Pickering and Grosmont.
The railway is planning to operate with Covid-19 mitigations, until the summer holidays, with pre-booked end-to-end services including a set departure and return time.
The railway’s intermediate service, between Pickering and Grosmont, will enable passengers the opportunity to hop-on and hop-off and explore Levisham, Goathland and Grosmont stations.
General manager Chris Price said: “It was a huge relief when the government announced its roadmap, which now enables the railway to plan and prepare for when it can reopen.
