At the other end of its revenue-earning mainline career

At the other end of its revenue-earning mainline career, Flying Scotsman makes its final exit from KingOs Cross for British Railways in 1963, having steamed more than two million miles in 40 years - not a bad investment for the railways.
Probably the worlds most famous steam train, " The Flying Scotsman", pictured as it was withdrawn from service. The great train had been in service for 40 years and had travelled 2, 076, 000 miles. The story doesn t end there however. After years of touring the world, the Flying Scotsman was purchased by Dr Tony Marchington for £ 1.25 million and after a lot of effort will make its first run after being fully restored on the 4th July 1999 with a trip from Kings Cross to York
