East Lancashire Railway

Preview Flying Scotsman in its black undercoat as it builds up its mileage on our railway.

This will be the first opportunity for visitors to ride behind the famous engine ahead of its official completion. The dedicated "Scotsman in Steam" event on 9 - 10 and 16 - 17 January 2016 will see Flying Scotsman take to the tracks for both passenger services and luxury dining experiences.

Visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a return trip behind what many believe is the world's most famous engine. Book a seat on Flying Scotsman's passenger service and reserve not only your place in history but bragging rights too!

Make your Flying Scotsman experience even more memorable and ride in style on board the opulent Observation Saloon.

The East Lancashire Railway will be offering visitors an exclusive opportunity to dine behind the prestigious locomotive with both their Premium Dining Nights and Red Rose Diners on 8, 9, 15 and 16 January.

A Ride & Dine package will also be available on 10 and 17 January which includes a morning return trip on board Flying Scotsman and a three course traditional Lancastrian Lunch hauled by the railway’s flagship locomotive “The Crab” 13065

More information and online booking for the Scotsman in Steam Preview experiences will be announced on our website in early October. For further information on Scotsman Season 2016 visit the National Railway Museum's dedicate Flying Scotsman website
