I was recently asked to take some photographs of The Sir Nigel Gresley Steam Locomotive during its farewell weekend before it goes out of service for a while for a major maintenance work.

Obviously I was so happy at being asked, and it has been a privilege to spend time on the train taking photographs as we travelled from Grosmont to Pickering and back.

My favourite way to travel is by train, and there cant be many more scenic journeys than riding through our amazing national park pulled by such an amazing engine as The Sir Nigel Gresley.

My full set of photographs can be found on Real Whitby here. Below are a selection of the best shots from the weekend.
