Flying Scotsman passes through Shropshire
The Flying Scotsman travelled through Shropshire today as it made its way from Crewe to Paddington.
Thousands of people lined the route at various vantage points as it passed through Prees, Wem, Harlescott, Shrewsbury, Dorrington, Marshbrook, Craven Arms, Bromfield and Woofferton.
The sun was shining as people waited to get a glimpse of the famous locomotive which was recently restored at a cost of £4.2 million.
The locomotive which was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, returned to regular service earlier this year when huge crowds followed its journey from London to York in February.
It was purchased by The National Railway Museum in 2004.
