All aboard the Flying Scotsman on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway!

Flying Scotsman steam train at Pickering Station, ready to depart through the scenic North York Moors during the Railway 200 celebrations.

As part of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway’s Railway 200 celebrations, get ready for an unforgettable journey with a true British legend: the world-famous Flying Scotsman!

This October half term, the Flying Scotsman will be steaming through the beautiful North York Moors between Grosmont and Pickering, and you can hop on board. Thanks to the National Railway Museum and Northern Steam Operations Ltd, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to ride behind one of the most iconic steam engines in history.

Your ticket includes a guaranteed seat on a magical round-trip from Grosmont to Pickering. But that’s not all: you can also jump on other trains (no seat reservations needed) running between Pickering, Grosmont, and Whitby on the same day. So why not enjoy a railway adventure and explore the full line?

It’s the perfect autumn day out for families, train lovers and young explorers, so don’t miss your chance to travel back in time and make amazing memories with the Flying Scotsman.
