NORTH BAY RAILWAY TALES

There are 10 books in this series, all based on the miniature train railway at  North Bay, Scarborough. Sir Alan Ayckbourn commented, "... delightful books. I think they're lovely and should enchant younger readers with their atmosphere and characters."
The books are very suitable for young children, particularly those aged 2 to 7. The tales  focus on this miniature train ride, the longest in Britain. It's a wonderful ride, and all goes well, until something happens to spoil it, then emotions are touched before a happy ending arrives.
These small books are very well illustrated. The first three books have drawn illustrations by the late  Bob Atkinson, former resident of Scarborough, while the rest of the books use photographs. 
. The recent  books feature key images from local photographer Bernard Dixon.  The books are put together by Mike Springall of McRay Press.
