Filming takes place a short way from Levisham Station. The station car parks at both Pickering and Levisham have been commandeered by almost 300 cast and crew members.

Yesterday Cruise was spotted filming an action sequence at Levisham which saw him clinging to the outside of a steam locomotive train in a blue suit and running along the top of the train and carriage with co-stars Esai Morales and Hayley Atwell.

The station is closed until May 15 when services resume.

The document said "on the two shoot days, there will be noisy activities taking place - the sound of a train coming off the quarry face and some controlled explosions - these will be during the day and will all be of short duration."

The 250 crew listed on the initial plan could soon descend on the quarry with filming at the location expected to wrap up by May 21.

Mission: Impossible 7 is scheduled for release in May 2022.
