UK route - Sledmere/Fimber/Malton/East Yorkshire?

Learning... slowly!
Today whilst googling the East Yorkshire villages of Sledmere and Fimber (for a non-trainz purpose) I came across screenshots of a route made in TRS2009 which seemed to model the railway line across the Yorkshire Wolds - Stamford Bridge, Sledmere & Fimber, towards Malton etc.

Does anyone know anythign about this route and whether it ever made onto the DLS? It's an area close to my heart and I'd LOVE to be able to mess about with a route based on it. BElow is a screenshot I found as evidence!

EDIT: Think it covers the old Malton - Driffield Railway?
 
Yes, Alex, it was indeed the Malton to Driffield railway.

It was lewisner's baby - I worked on some of the buildings for him for a while, but I'm pretty sure that his work circumstances changed and he was no longer able to devote the time to the project, so it faded away, and never made it to the DLS.

It's caught my eye on a couple of occasions mainly because it's not an area of the UK you associate with hilly routes. Also features in a book I've got about walking old railways. Sadly not made it much beyond a quick survey in Sabre Maps and a quick note on my very-maybe list of potential future projects.
