On Sunday 17th August to train leaves Whitby at 12.46 arriving in Glaisdale at 13.10 for a quick trot up the hill to the Arncliffe Arms where we will spend the afternoon with song and in drink until we catch the return train to Whitby at 17.24 arriving back in Whitby just in time for early evening "cocktails" at 17.55.

14 Aug 14 - 09:13 AM (#3650927) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: Mysha Hi, Will there be singing on the train as well? Hm, train songs? - City of New Orleans - Freight Train - This Train ! - Casey Jones - Rock Island Line - Blue Water Line Not quite enough to fill 2x24 minutes of travel. And there might have to be someone to lead the song. (Hm, there's a song about that too, but I can't recall what it's called.) So, what will you do Bye Mysha |

03 Sep 14 - 08:11 AM (#3656430) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,Sapper at work on TIC2 Well, meant to do this two weeks ago, but the session at Glaisdale was idyllic! Good company, excellent musicians and some fine singers added together with lovely weather and some decent ale!! Thank you to the organisers and I'll be doing it again next year. |
03 Sep 14 - 11:38 AM (#3656529) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,Raggytash Glad you enjoyed the afternoon Sapper, it's always an enjoyable time. Away from the throng in Whitby, good singing and playing, good pub, good beer, good food and great people. |

18 Aug 15 - 07:37 PM (#3731271) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,Guest Strange to me that people have only been at a major festival one day and yet seem to want to do something else on the second day?! |
19 Aug 15 - 03:54 AM (#3731356) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,Raggytash Guest, we started this several years ago when Regatta and Folk Week clashed. The pubs over the regatta were packed with a good percentage of people did not want to listen to folkies so a group of us decamped for the Sunday. It has grown from there. The pub we go to welcomes us, the room is almost entirely folkies and the singers and players can do their stuff with like minded people. This session has now become a successful part of the fringe. |
19 Aug 15 - 04:04 AM (#3731357) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,andiliqueur Thanks Raggytash for organising this again. I think it starts the fringe folk week off in a very civilised manner and is highly recommended but you do need your running shoes to get up that hill and nab a seat! Does the train still leave Whitby at 12.46? |
19 Aug 15 - 04:45 AM (#3731365) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,Raggytash Some confusion here Andiliqueur. The Esk Valley Railway site says 12.46. National Rail says 13.03. Probably best to get there early just in case. |
20 Aug 15 - 04:47 PM (#3731900) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: GUEST,BETSY I'm getting confused (as happens quite often these day) Nick , I was talking to you on the 16th August 2015 at Saltburn saying I will try ..... I appreciate many of the posts above go back to 2014. Should we be talking about Sunday 23rd August 2015 ?? |

I've tried to phone Esk Valley Railway who's website says 12.46 they have not returned my messages. So I'll be at the station at 12.40 just in case. |
21 Aug 15 - 06:08 AM (#3732030) Subject: RE: Whitby: Glaisdale Sunday From: Raggytash Esk Valley Rail have now phoned The Train leaves Whitby at 13.03 arriving in Glaisdale about 13.30, the pub two or three minutes later. That's us lot not the train. |
