A hand-tinted picture postcard of Thomassin Foss at Goathland. Extremely well-executed. The style is that of Frank Meadow Sutcliffe, but the photographer is uncredited. The printer is H Graham, Glen Wortley, Leeds.

Whitby and Moors Excursion

Whitby Moors

Double-headed by an Ivatt 3MT 2-6-2T number 41265, a Whitby and Moors Excursion rounds the reverse curve at Fen bog, a few miles South of Goathland (near Levisham), a long train from the West Riding requiring assistance up the gradients out of Levisham. The second loco is probably a B1. This location is also close to Fylingdales moor, sitting roughly below the radar station.
