Christmas on the Yorkshire Steam Railway

It’s Christmas at the NYMR! There’s festive jollity aplenty as the railway prepares for the 2019 Santa Season. What started as a bit of good fun is now absolutely crucial depths-of-winter revenue generator for the railway. And to make sure this is the most successful Santa Season ever they’ve added a whole new train, the Northern Lights Express. This spectacular new service - involving 25,000 lights fixed to a moving steam train and its carriages, as well as illuminating sections of the 18 mile track – is an incredible technical and logistical challenge. How will this marriage of Victorian engineering and 21st century come together?
