What North Yorkshire Moors Railway looked like in its prime.

A working steam heritage railway: polished black steam locomotives and varnished brown/cream coaching stock on stone-faced platforms; red-painted iron footbridges and timber station buildings with cream-painted woodwork; short brick waiting huts and signal boxes; running sheds with coal bunkers, water columns and workshop doors; rural moorland and mixed woodland beyond the track, semaphore signals and iron girder bridges at minor water crossings. Platforms have period lamp standards and passengers in modern casual clothing.
