Flying Scotsman on London King's Cross to York run

Yes, I would imagine it does, Bonny.  I hope no walls get shaken.....

It's a very long time since I've seen one of these....



Young persons just don't understand British Rail jokes.

That is a stunning photo - it barely looks real.

You are right, Bonny.  I does barely look real.  

The whole thing has been a huge success, with thousands of people turning out to see the train - the only flaw was the idiots at Network Rail, that nearly caused a cancellation because they 'didn't have data' on the Fife circle - God knows how they thought trains have been running there all this time.

A great day for the volunteers and enthusiasts, who refurbished the train, and all those carriages, too - I hope this expedition is the first of many.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the great brains that could not work out the width of train tracks out........
