    It’s had ten years of rail tours. Ten years of merchandise sales. Ten years of visits across the country where preserved railways have lined up as it undoubtedly fills their coffers. It’s been on the royal train, it’s done a slew of photo...

    Lets just enjoy this engine whether it be the mainline or preserved lines and maybe give the NRM a bit of credit for keeping her in steam. She's a wonderful loco and a great ambassador for steam and right now that's exactly what steam needs.

    Interested to know if there is significant difference between registering Scotsman as a self powered vehicle or as a towed vehicle ( in effect a van). As the latter can a lot of the electronics be removed ? Even if only powering herself on...

    Tbh given recent locomotive moves and the lack of TOCs willing to work with Scotsman. I wonder if in the future they won't bother having Flying Scotsman mainline certified. The main focus for Flying Scotsmans these days is heritage lines and as...

    I always considered 44767 to be a coach better than other Black 5’s in NYMR service.

    The Stephenson link valve gear would give the game away instantly. Either way I’ll take the news with a pinch of salt until any confirmed sightings, but welcome news if 45110’s return is imminent.
