NYMR is a registered charity which provides a high-quality, safe and authentic evocation of the steam age for the public, and over the past 18 months the railway has been finalising the shape of the 'Yorkshire's Magnificent Journey' project and raising urgent funds. The ambitious project will start this spring thanks to a £4.4m grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.The £9.7m project has also received £1.75 million from the Rural Payments Agency (RPA), as well as contributions from local organisations and private donors.
