Great Photo of a lovely steam engine!

I was privileged to be part of the "Welcome Home" party when she came back to York Railway Museum after her restoration. She was piped in by a Scotsman in full highland regalia - very emotional afternoon.

Re: The Flying Scotsman

Yes great photo as always. It is a pity it wasn't with full steam billowing from the funnel but not your fault

Re: The Flying Scotsman

Bit fuzzy because he was marching/marking time - demonstrates the sheer size of the engine though - the wheel is nearly as tall as the piper !

Nice Piper
