Royal Scot
FINAL preparations are being put together for the arrival of the Royal Scot locomotive on The North Yorkshire Moors Railway.
The railway is celebrating 50 years since the formation of the charitable Trust in 1967 with the new attraction set to kick off the season in style.
Royal Scot, which was built in 1927, was the first in a new breed of steam locomotives, made for services from London to Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow. She was then rebuilt by British Railways in 1950 and retired in 1962.
Royal Scot will be at the railway until March 30 and also April 1 and 2. Departure times are 9.30am, 12.30pm and 3.30pm.
