The third and final part of my walk along the Cinder Track, which used to be the Scarborough & Whitby Railway. Starting in Cloughton on the edge of the North York Moors, I pass through Scalby before arriving at Scarborough station.
The Scarborough & Whitby Railway was closed in 1965, as part of the infamous ‘Beeching Cuts’. Although many people would love to see the railway line reopen on the Yorkshire coast, it’s unlikely to ever happen.
(Many thanks to ‪@TheSouthernerYTChannel‬ for the footage of the RH&D railway.
Also, thanks again to Neil Cholmondeley & John Turner for their help with research and permission to use their archive material.)

A great shame this line was closed. The scenery is fantastic and just think what a trip it would be to have a trangular heritage railway operating Scarborough - Whitby - Pickering - Scarborough and a fantastic revenue earner both for the railway and the whole area. I well remember having a rail rover ticket as my summer holiday treat (10/- adult and 5/- children) with my Dad which operated in the triangle Whitby/ York / Cleethorpes including the Humber ferry - fantastic value !! It made such an impression that I can still remember the numbers (67764/7) of the two L1 tank engines which operated the route !!

There is slightly more of Scalby Station left than first meets the eye. If you look at the buildings fronting Station Road at the junction of Chichester Close you will see they have stonework running up each corner. This stone was removed from the original station and built in to the new buildings.

Hi thank you so much for doing a video covering Cloughton railway station. Couple of facts, Alfred Hart was the last station master there and also ran the local coal business. The station back then had a cat on payroll called Tike which was the head mouse catcher. Seems silly to have a cat on payroll but its true.

As a senior, I would love to visit and explore the area on a recumbent tadpole trike. Perhaps in a group of 5 or so. We could all have a regular stop at strategic places to eat while our trikes are safely watched. Now that COVID has mostly passed, I can see a healthy tourist industry start to blossom again.

I can tell you straight away that tourists would ride a recumbent trike all over the place over there. Public restrooms and strategic places to eat and shop are a part of the overall wonderful tourist experience. Structured tours other than on tour buses are in order here. Recumbent trikes make that new dimension of tourism so possible.

Loads of memories of messing around on the Cinder track, my mate mum was the warden at the care home where Scalby station was. There's been a campaign to reopen ever since it closed but I agree can't see it happening, apparently the scrappers arrived overnight to dismantle the line and make their wedge. So sad, what a attraction it would make now. Great video, brings back happy memories

I recall as a child walking the section from Scarborough to Robin Hood (my parents being keen ramblers). I just remember it being hard work as the ballast was still down, although the track was long gone. This would be in the early to mid 1970s. I also remember the track dissappearing into the tunnel at the Scarborough station end, however, I assume the goods yards were also long gone at this stage, unless they remained in use for a while after passenger traffic ended.

Just after you cross the viaduct into what is now Newby Farm estate, is where I was brought up from the early sixties, if you look on the estate there is one old house, that was our family home, my sister and I used to watch the trains going past, I also remember the sad time of seeing the track being lifted and the sleepers cut up into pit props, all what is now the estate was fields, where we used to get up to all sorts of mischief.

I have to say that is a fair point, I visit Dungeness regularly as I live in Kent - but spent most of my childhood in and around the cinder track. The example here in Kent, would be amazing say - between Whitby and Ravenscar - not sure how well it would operate beyond that - but at least a whole chunk of the line would still be viable. Thank you for showing me the section I have never walked - even though I know Scarborough well. I look forward to your next videos.

The Station buildings were also a B&B as well as a tea room. My ex-wife and I stayed there back in 2006. The owners were wonderful people and the breakfasts were enormous full English. They also had a video of the delivery of the carriage and how it was placed on the short rail section. If memory serves me right, they bought it from the works at Carnforth. i went to Gladstone Road Junior School (1955-61) and remember looking out of the "senior boys' playground" at the shunting going on in Gallows Close - often by a little 0-6-0 # 47403. The last train to Whitby was actually a steam hauled special which followed the DMU you have included. I was on the bridge at Scalby and have a photo of both the service DMU and the steam special. A great set of 3 videos. Subscribed.

How many can remember the Hump Back Bridge near St Marks Church ,As kids in the 1940 s we watched trains go under it going to Scalby & putting half pennies on the track to flatten them ,

With thanks to you we have been doing this walk.Yesterday we did Ravenscar to Hayburn Wyke (and back). We are looking forward to completing the walk ,and this is all because of us seeing it on here in your excellent videos. We have also done the old railway track from Thorpe Thewles to Sunderland which is also very interesting. Keep up the good work,and i look forward to viewing more of your videos.

A 2 foot gauge line was planned around RHB but it never came to fruition and the WHR obtained some of the locos.
