About Scarborough North Bay Railway

Indulge in soft scoop ice cream and delicious hot food including stone baked pizzas from Sidings Snack Shack. Wrap up your visit by grabbing a memento from one of our station gift shops.
Both our stations are wheelchair-friendly with step-free access whilst our trains are also fully accessible.
Open daily from Easter to the end of October, with additional events being held throughout the year, including our ever popular Santa Specials. Keep up-to-date with all our news by checking our website and social media channels.
