The Scarborough & Whitby Railway was a railway line from Scarborough to Whitby in North Yorkshire, England. The line followed a difficult but scenic route along the North Yorkshire coast.
The line opened in 1885 and closed in 1965 as part of the Beeching Axe. The route, now a multi-use path, is known as "The Cinder Track".[1]
