Nice to see the North York moors covered in snow on a bright clear day.

Nice footage, and just the right amount of snow to make it feel festive.

Nice footage and a view as a passenger. Always enjoy the video. Happy New Year to all. See you on the next! Cheers mates! ❤️🇬🇧👍🙂🇺🇸

A pedant writes: P3 was the pre-grouping NER designation for what, in LNER days, became Class J27. Had there been an LNER P3, it would've been a 2-8-2 (the initial letters denoting wheel arrangement, in this case J being for 0-6-0 locos). None of which detracts one iota from a wonderfully atmospheric video on a stunning railway .....

It would have been even better at the end to see a brief shot of the train taken from the front. It appeared to have many goods wagons of varying types. Well done. I travelled on NYMR years ago on a trip from Australia. Great to see it surviving, along with many other UK heritage railways.

There is another video showing the front of the train on this channel.

When I was a kid they were called guards vans

Yes , didn't most trains have a guards van at the back? As a child, in to 50's I longed to ride along in one, & still do,( are tickets available ), It must be a far more Memorable experience, than seated inside the cosy carriages. Early travelers, in those horse-drawn trucks, presumably experienced the same sense of adventure !

@@robertplace6131 Goods trains all had a brake (guard's) van for the guard to ride in and operate the handbrake, in the days before all wagons had brakes that could be applied by the driver. Passenger trains had part of a carriage set aside for the guard (also where parcels, dogs and bicycles travelled).

Nice Footage there Iain, behind the brake van

great footage, takes me back when brake vans were in use on BR

A pickup-goods train in the 1960's? Could be...

Why do some trains have brake vans at the rear? What do they do?

They provided somewhere for the guard to ride and oversee safe operation of the train. Also, when many wagons didn't have power brakes, the loco brake and the handbrake in the van might be the only ones that could be applied on the move. The guard had to use his brake to help the driver control the train. And they carried the various lamps required by regulations.
