The National Railway Museum has sent RailAdvent an update on Flying Scotsman, with the locomotive currently based at Locomotion at Shildon.

The museum says that they are working with Northern Steam Operations to facilitate the locomotive’s operation for the full term of the contract.

Northern Steam Operations was announced as the new custodian of the world famous locomotive back in June, taking over from Riley & Son.

Meanwhile, they are continuing to work with Northern Steam Operations to develop a calendar of work for the world-famous locomotive.

A calendar of work is set to be shared in due course.

We are working with Northern Steam Operations to facilitate Flying Scotsman’s operation for the full term of the contract. We are continuing to work with Northern Steam Operations Limited on the development of a calendar. This will be shared in due course.
