Services
Four trains per day leave Whitby on weekdays and Saturdays, with five trains on summer Sundays. Trains call at all stations to Middlesbrough. As the first train of the day from Whitby arrives in Middlesbrough at 10:18 am the service is not attractive to commuters.
On 3 April 2007 services along the heritage North Yorkshire Moors Railway commenced running from Whitby to Pickering, running along the Esk Valley line to Grosmont railway station where they join the NYMR's own line. The 2011 summer peak service in July and August consists of three departures daily except on Sundays. There are trains to Whitby during the whole of the NYMR's season (mid-March to the start of November), along with trips along the line on Fridays for the NYMR's 2011 season.
From 11 October 2007 the NYMR took over National Rail ticket sales at Whitby (as well as selling their own tickets).

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“We now in the United States have more security guards for the rich than we have police services for the poor districts. If you’re looking for personal security, far better to move to the suburbs than to pay taxes in New York.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
