Mr Monkey takes the Scarborough Flyer to York, 10th September


Return to Mr Monkey in Yorkshire 

As Mr Monkey had enjoyed watching steam locomotives hauling the Scarborough Flyer through Stockport so much, and because he knew Miss Carol was going to have a birthday, he decided to book tickets to ride the train. He thought it would be fun to jump off at York instead of travelling all the way to Scarborough.
