All the delightful steam engines on show at the North York Moors Railway's Autumn Gala
Five of the heritage line's own preserved locomotives will be joined by four visiting engines which are travelling from various parts of the UK for the three-day steam spectacular.
A 'Black Five' dating from 1935 and now kept in a collection at Heywood will be joining another of her class, 44806, which already operates on the NYMR.
