There are many thousands who feel the same as I do in the UK
We love our steam trains
Bellow is footage taken over 2016 showing various Steam hauled mainline tours over the West Coast Mainline and The Settle and Carlisle railway . Loco's seen are 44871,45407, 46233 The Duchess of Sutherland, 60103 Flying Scotsman, 46100 Royal Scot , 46115 Scots Guardsman ,67084, 45690 Leander and 45699 Galatea.
The main event in 2016 would see the return of 60103 Flying Scotsman back to the rails after major rebuilding .A lot of the tours seen in this video had the legend that is Gordon Hodgson driving the engine but sadly he retired this year and will be sadly missed on the mainline.
