British Transport Police officers contacted North Yorkshire Police on Thursday morning after locating a man’s body in some overgrowth, near to train lines in the Seamer Road area of Scarborough.
Peter’s family have been informed and are being supported by specialist officers.
The family have asked for their privacy to be respected at this very difficult time.
