Pickering Wartime Weekend

Every October, the North Yorkshire Moors Railways recaptures the spirit of the second world
war, with its War Time Weekend.
It is an annual tribute to the men and women who kept Britain's railways running throughout
the war. To remember them, they recreate the sights and sounds of those dark days. Every
hour, steam trains leave with servicemen and women, factory workers, land army girls,
nurses. The weekend begins with the ceremonial flag raising on Friday, and
continues until it is lowered again on Sunday afternoon.
