Flying Scotsman at Kingswear

IF YOU LIKE THIS IMAGE PLEASE DO LEAVE A COMMENT.This is a sight that could not have been seen in steam days on Britain’s railways, an Eastern Region Gresley A1 Pacific on the hallowed metals of the Western Region-—-——-unthinkable, but this is 1994 when the World’s most famous locomotive “Flying Scotsman” paid a visit to the privately preserved Paignton-Kingswear branch line. Nevertheless it makes a fine sight in the later British Railways Brunswick Green livery and fitted with German-type smoke deflectors, currently it sports LNER Apple Green and the smoke deflectors have been removed. In the background across the River Dart lies Dartmouth, the town with a railway station but no trains, but that’s another story. An oil painting like this on board or canvas 20”x30” of your favourite railway subject, British, American or even French, would cost about £2500. E-mail me on [email protected] or ring 07884462140.
