- Footage taken from 2004's series of 'Ride the Legend' tours. Here Scotsman is coming into York station on its way to Scarborough, driven by Bill Andrew.
We've uploaded this as part of Scotsman's return in 2016 - find out more at www.flyingscotsman.org.uk - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
This time the loco has just reached her centenary celebrations last year and now it’s in her 101st year
It's good to see Scott in his true format. He doesn't look bad now in 2021. All that's needed is for those parallel bar things on his front to be made silver again and his wheels restored to green. He isn't just any locomotive, his historical appearance is important!!!!

3:35 I SWEAR THATS ME! I used to have a red tshirt and shorts like that when I was 12 (in 2004) and I remember being on that side of the platform as the Scotsman pulled out of a station one day, why didn't the camera stay on that shot for a few more seconds!
honor to meet a celebrity!
Just pause it
It's great to see the driver and the other cabin crew acknowledge the people on the platform and wave to them.
Visited today, what a gorgeous locomotive.
Good old Flying Scotsman with his original number "4472" before 60103.
William Radford That’s his BR Number
Atleast she was still in Apple green as LNER 4472, but goodness gracious BR, the German smoke detectors look silly on it.
Long live the king of steam
Been to the museum today, didn't get to see her there, nut then she couldn't be in 2 places at once
Question.. for Scotsman’s 100th Birthday could you repaint here in that livery?! I hoping to come for her 100th birthday!
Don’t ask why it’s just that I love Flying Scotsman in that livery as an A3!
Definitely beats the godawful Brunswick Green they painted her in, that's for sure
Based Knopfler ha ha.. to right.. to right.. but she’s does look ‘hard working’ when she’s got a headboard on.. whilst in her Brunswick Green..
Absolutely yes! She needs to be put back in LNER Apple green! The Brunswick queen that she’s in now is absolutely the worst paint job ever most people know and recognize flying Scotsman bye the apple green paint job The smoke deflectors and the double chimney can stay the Brunswick green paint has to go!
I really wish they had, given it's also the anniversary of the 'Big Four' companies that included the LNER, so you'd think it's original livery would be more appropriate.
The BR green isn't bad as such, and it looks better on some locos than others, but I think it's the abundance of preserved locos in BR colours that puts people off it, as well as the lack of many (if any) preserved locos currently in LNER green.
@@rudycarlson8245 yeah nah. For historical reasons Flying Scotsman only able to wear BR green and have it be correct for the conditon of the locomotive. To do it right (putting aside Scotsman was likely never LNER green in service as an A3) you'd have to do the same sort of mods Alan Peglar did when he first returned Scotsman to service in the 60s. In it's role as a MUSEUM, the NRM has a duty of care to ensure its assets are presented in ways that are historically correct for the conditon of the asset.
Lemme know if Flying-Scotsman has ever been to Bridlington, too
Love this train. Theres just something mesmerising about it. They did a wonderful job recreating it on my favourite xbox game Forza Horizon 4. Its great how it rolls through the british countryside! The only way I get to see it is when im playing that game!
Id love to see it in real life and take the kids for a ride on it...theyd love it!!
He looks much better with those two bars and that round thing on his front facade in silver than in black. Sorry, I don't know what they're actually called.
its smoke deflector
Could someone please tell me why Flying Scotsman's 2000s condition is controversial
It's because of the smoke deflectors and double chimney. She never carried those with LNER Apple Green in service, which is why it's a controversial look. She also had a chime whistle, something else she never carried in service
@@pansparrow Thanks. I didn't know about the chime whistle, so there's something new, I suppose! I found out it was a South African Railways 5-chime whistle that she was first fitted with during the Marchington years. I'm assuming this whistle has now been replaced, although please correct me if I'm wrong.
@@heniflynn700 Yes, it has since been replaced and she has ran with her current (more usual) bell whistle since 2016
Sorry but this is how she should look. We have so many BR liveried loco's she needs to go LNER again
1st problem the LNER isn't going anymore, idk about BR though but because the railway is nationalised, it's highly unlikely she'll ever be painted in apple green again
LNER being non-existent isn't why Scotsman's not in LNER livery. It's because he's supposedly in the wrong shape to be painted in said colors. Right now he appears the way he did in his final days of steam on the BR and that's how people want it to be. Maybe one day they'll give him back the old single chimney and repaint him but idk
What about tornado?
Its in LNER Green but just with “Britsh railway’s”on its tender
@@HomerPenguin5516 Tornado isn't owned by the NRM, and that's the livery the Peppercorn A1's wore when they were put into service for the first time in 1948
LNER came back in the recent years
