Beeching and Marples had a lot to answer for.

Very interesting clip. I've just recently read a 'then and now' picture book on this line, so it was a delight finding this

What an excellent film and good quality considering it's 8mm(?) origin. My 8mm films were never that good! Terrible shame that this line was closed, but by all accounts there were very few users so closure was probably inevitable. You can't run a railway without users, but it's still a shame. I always walk along part of it whenever I can get to that part of the country and it would have been a good ride through great scenery. Thanks for putting it on.

Astonishing film. The closure of the line was an absolute disgrace. The bus journey between Scarborough and Whitby is a horrible experience.
