The Flying Scotsman steams through Leigh Station, Kent

Date filmed: 17/03/2022
Video filmed at 20:15

Here we see the magnificent and very famous locomotive 60103 'The Flying Scotsman' steaming through Leigh (Kent) Station on the Tonbridge to Redhill Line. This was filmed later on in the evening on its return journey from spending a day on Kent's railways - the very first time in its 99 years it travelled through this part of the country thanks to high-tech gauging technology allowing it to travel along these railways for the very first time! The tour was operated by Steam Dreams. Hope you enjoy this short clip!
