Yes… Then this could be the job for you!

The North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR) Trust is one of Britain’s (and, indeed, the world’s) leading heritage railways. It is an accredited museum and has recently been awarded National Portfolio status by Arts Council England, the first heritage railway to be recognised in this way. Recently the Trust has redrafted its charitable purposes to strengthen its emphasis on learning for all, on environmental and heritage conservation and on broadening engagement for both volunteers and visitors.

• Free standard travel on NYMR.
• Free Car Parking.
