Flying Scotsman Experiences
Selected Dates
10 - 21 March 2026
Experience Flying Scotsman at The Watercress Line!
Enjoy these exciting days out with this iconic locomotive!
Flying Scotsman was built in 1923 by the LNER and named after the London to Edinburgh express service she was built for. In 1934, she was the first locomotive to officially reach 100mph. She was withdrawn from service in 1963, after 40 years of service.
In 2004, she was purchased by the National Railway Museum, and restored to working order in 10 years, costing £4.2 million.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.
It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.
