From someone who rode the Flying Scotsman from York to King's Cross in the late 1940's, many thanks !!! There's nothing compares to the sounds and sights of this fantastic machine and it brings many emotions up
Great coverage of return to mainline of this wonderful iconic piece of British engineering supremacy. Just a thought - if all the monies collected from so many sources for this Loco were to be pooled together there would be no problems keeping "The Flyingscotsman" going for many years to come :) She's worth a million.
Make that a billion. Let's face it, what other locomotive has the history behind it that this baby has? I write this on Feb 2 2021. Nearly 6 years since he returned to the track and this month he turns an astounding 98! He is a true survivor!
