Stepping back in time to the golden era of steam, this print captures a momentous occasion on 23rd February 1965 at Central Station, Newcastle. A young group of enthusiastic train spotters were treated to an extraordinary glimpse into railway history as Engine No. 4472, famously known as The Flying Scotsman, gracefully pulled into platform 9. Amidst the bustling atmosphere of the station, people from all walks of life gathered together to witness this iconic locomotive during its trial run from Darlington.
