  • Join me on a day out to Locomotion, a railway museum in Shildon on the outskirts of Darlington to visit the world famous Flying Scotsman locomotive and find out why Shildon has a Rail museum.
    To get there we ride on board the Tyne and Wear metro service, go first class with LNER, hop on board with Northern and return with Cross Country.

    Left Luggage Room is lovely, good atmosphere. I recently ordered my trip for Newcastle and Whitley Bay for the upcoming summer. I do have plans to pay LLR a visit for a pint 😊

      Hi mate, thanks for watching appreciated. They do a lovely pint, plus it's a nice place to wait if you miss a metro.

    Enjoyed this. The long shots really give atmosphere and let us savour moments. Some of the Metro stations you show are impressive, and Darlington is a star.
