TO celebrate National Storytelling Week – January 30 to February 6 – North Yorkshire Moors Railway has teamed up with a number of critically-acclaimed authors for a week of readings and activities.
Keep your eyes peeled as each day a new storytelling-themed post on NYMR’s social channels will reveal fun activities, including a railway-inspired short story writing session; an exclusive reading by Chris Vine from an excerpt of his charming series of children's train books, Peter’s Railway.
There will also be videos from the likes of Yorkshire-born Andrew Martin, author of a series of railway-themed detective novels.
In addition, on Monday, February 1, North Yorkshire Moors Railway's Piglet will be reading a bedtime story at 4pm.
