By popular request, something far removed from the Great Western! At this time much holiday travel was still by train, and in addition there were frequent day excursions to the seaside from many parts of Yorkshire and Lancashire, and sometimes further afield. Scarborough had an interesting station layout, with a separate excursion station as well as the main terminus, and carriage sidings "offstage" at Gallows Close. You have to manage the station and shed, striving to return visiting engines to their homes and to keep the holiday traffic moving. By 1960 most local services were dieselised, but all main line trains are still steam-powered.
