What do you think? Is the Flying Scotsman an icon of Doncaster?
⭐️ Built in 1923 in Doncaster
⭐️ Over 100 years old, the oldest mainline working locomotive in the UK
⭐️ In 1934 the first locomotive to reach 100mph, until that point no one on earth had travelled that fast by rail - today we pretty much take it for granted
⭐️ The first locomotive to circumnavigate the world
⭐️ Still holds the world record for a nonstop run in a steam locomotive, set in 1989 in Australia!
Famous in Doncaster and the world, is it an icon of Doncaster?
