The return services depart from Grosmont Station at 12:30pm and travel along 18 miles of the heritage line to Pickering and back, with the experience lasting approximately 2 hours and 35 minutes.

Diners can expect a selection of artisan bread and butter at the table and then three-courses pre-booked from the seasonal menu. Starters include spring vegetable soup, goats cheese, pear & walnut tart, or chef’s homemade chicken liver pâté. The main course choices are roast loin of Yorkshire pork, Yorkshire seafood chowder, or pearl barley risotto. To finish, passengers can choose from a trio of desserts or a selection of cheese and biscuits, followed by tea or coffee and handmade specialty chocolates.

Kathryn Watson, Catering Manager at the NYMR, said, “When it comes to choosing Pullman menus, we like to keep them fresh using quality, local, seasonal products where possible, we have a lot of repeat guests so we currently offer spring, summer and autumn menus, afternoon tea and some special menus – this year we are celebrating Yorkshire Day & the 45th anniversary of the Pullman Dining train too.”

Something old, something gone: The British wedding traditions on borrowed time

New Aspall research reveals the wedding traditions that are being dropped - from the bouquet toss and choreographed first dances, to the father-of-the-bride speech - and the modern alternatives taking their place. Speeches given only by men (36%), a choreographed first dance (34%) and the formal receiving line (30%) are among the wedding traditions that couples are keenest to ditch, a new study reveals. Wearing a veil, the 15-minute father-of-the-bride speech with no speech from the bride, and the traditional tiered fruit cake are also increasingly falling out of favour as Brits tie the knot, researchers found.

Something borrowed, something blue’ is out – but 1 in 4 Brits still value wedding cards

New research from Moonpig reveals the top wedding card writing confessions. A whopping 30% of Brits admit to defaulting to a safe "congratulations!" because they simply can't think of anything else to say. This is followed by recycling the same message for different couples (11%) and signing a card without knowing what your partner has written (8%). What's more, when stuck for words, one in 10 (8%) admit to turning to AI for inspiration - this rises to one in seven (14%) among 25–34-year-olds. Brits are not alone in facing this wedding card conundrum. More than half of Brits (55%) admit they have struggled with at least one aspect of wedding message writing. Nearly one in four find wedding cards (23%) or guest-book messages (24%) difficult, while one in five (20%) hit writer's block when preparing the all-important wedding speech.
