A special train service will once again take passengers to an annual fireworks event.
Wensleydale Railway’s Fireworks Express will run on Saturday, November 7, between Leyburn and Leeming Bar, giving passengers easy access to the Bedale community fireworks display.
Nick Keegan, marketing and fundraising manager at Wensleydale Railway, said: "We are pleased to once again provide our Fireworks Express service in support of the Bedale community fireworks event.
"Our train service is the perfect way for people to attend the event and avoid driving on dark, busy roads and the stress of finding a car parking space.
"This year, why not support this community event and your community railway, and let the train take the strain."
