Flying Scotsman, built in 1923 at Doncaster and numbered 60103, is one of the most iconic steam locomotives in the world. Designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, it became the first UK loco to reach 100 mph and holds a long-distance steam record in Australia. After retirement in 1963, it was preserved and later restored by the National Railway Museum. In 2023, during its centenary year, Flying Scotsman made history once again by hauling the Royal Train along the North Yorkshire Moors Railway to Pickering, proudly carrying King Charles III on a memorable journey through our stunning heritage landscape.

Flying Scotsman was originally built as an A1-class locomotive, later rebuilt as an A3, and has carried several liveries throughout its life, including LNER green, wartime black, and British Rail Brunswick green. It was named after the famous London to Edinburgh express service it once hauled non-stop. Over the years, it has become a symbol of British engineering and rail heritage, drawing crowds wherever it goes.
