Scarborough North Bay Railway is a miniature railway in Scarborough, North Yorkshire.
It was built in 1931, to the gauge of 1 ft 8 in (508 mm), and runs for approximately 3⁄4 miles between Peasholm Park and Scalby Mills in the North Bay area of the town. The opening ceremony took place at 2 p.m. on Saturday 23 May 1931. The locomotive, Neptune, was officially handed over by the Chairman of the North Side Development Committee, Alderman Whitehead, to the Mayor of Scarborough, Alderman J.W. Butler, for the Entertainments Department.
The four locomotives are of common vintage and were constructed in the same works. The first two, Neptune and Triton, belong to Scarborough Borough Council, have operated on the North Bay Railway since construction, and are currently leased to the operating company. The other two locomotives, Poseidon and Robin Hood are directly owned by the operating company and were relocated to Scarborough in December 2006.
