Steam was only one reason for visiting Pickering and Yorkshire. The emotive power is so photogenic.
Here on a rain lashed morning the first train of the day attempts Goathland bank. ( it was reversing at this moment !!!)

Such a beauty. Like the composition with the rails in the fg. But... what would you have done if it changed the rails??? 
Johanna
Great photo....I think a tighter crop would lose the rails in the foreground which I think add to the effect. Sue
Although it might have been reversing when you took the shot I think your compostion is perfect leaving us to imagine the train coming into to image and past us leaving that wonderful smell of steam trains that I remember so well.
Superb composition, plus (literally) dripping with atmosphere!
Moira
I think I can, I think I can... marvellous image Ron, shows the struggle with the hill and weather to perfection. The speed restriction looks a bit superfluous on this bit of track.
Dougie
You didn't have to volunteer that it was reversing 
Great pov, wonderful lead and oodles of atmosphere.
Anne
Stand out composition Ron with a particularly strong foreground.
