6/13/2024
There are very few steam locomotives that are not based either at a preserved

WELCOME

6/13/2024
If one engine appears in this column regularly, then it has to be sole surviving
‘A3’ No. 60103 Flying Scotsman. Saying that, all has been quiet on that front

‘nation’s favourite engine’ has been in mothballs while the NRM made its
decision.
