Rail enthusiasts of all ages had an apportunity to recapture the pas on 10th May 1969

Rail enthusiasts of all ages had an apportunity to recapture the pas on 10th May 1969 when the steam locomotive Flying Scotsman came to Newcastle on what could be its last visit to the North East.
The 46 year old engine, now owned and preserved by Nottinghamshire business man Mr. Alan Pegler, drew out of Newcastle Central Station amid clouds of steam, its wheels spinning on the wet metals, as it kept strictly to its timetable.
On board were over 300 people out to enjoy a stem hauled trip to Edinburgh, which was to take two hours for the 124 miles
