As part of the LNER repaint and rebrand of its Intercity 225 fleet, locomotive 91110 Battle of Britain Memorial Flight has been unveiled after its maintenance was completed.

The updated vinyl and new paintwork features the original design that was first unveiled 10 years ago.

The design pays tribute to those who served in their country and features the Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane.

91110, which broke the BR speed record in 1989 with a speed of 162mph, is set to re-enter service in due course.
