I hope that Alan is up there somewhere, smiling down at his pride and joy, knowing that with his final journey aboard her, the two are now together forever.
There is no doubt that Alan would be smiling if he could see how strongly Scotsman is running today in 2021 at the age of 98. Thankyou Alan for being willing to help give this legend of steam and national monument a lease of life again.
I once stayed overnight next to a railroad track. It was at a campground in Sandusky, Ohio and ever since then, I like trains that don't wake me up. I mean, the only trains I've disliked are the ones that woke me up that night. TTTE nostalgia's the reason I'm here. I mean, Scotsman appears in there, as Gordon's brother.
I've especially wanted to mention that I personally do wanna completely obviously agree that Alan Pegler certainly indeed was basically quite a legend for coming straight on the process of rescuing Gordon's only remaining brother known as the Flying Scotsman from the Scrapper's torch, and especially since it's basically obviously clear that Alan Pegler surely would be looking down from heaven knowing that the locomotive designed by Sir Herbert Nigel Gresley known as the Flying Scotsman is still in good hands @ the National Railway Museum in York where it worked for some time UNTIL getting withdrawn from service! Also, apparently for another fact that it's completely obviously clear to be exactly 100% true that without the dedicated work of Alan Pegler, Gordon's brother certainly WOULD DEFINITELY 100% BASICALLY have been sentenced to the scrapyard to get cut up into pieces by the Scrapper's torch on the Other Railway for sure! I've especially wanted to mention that I personally do perfectly agree that Alan Pegler generously deserves a friendly 6-years-late farewell as he's OFFICIALLY now reunited the famous locomotive designed by Sir Herbert Nigel Gresley known as the Flying Scotsman again as his ashes were thrown into the firebox sort of speak!
Thanks Brian. Turned out brilliantly, had a mini tripod as well to keep the camera steady after the anti-tripods thing was almost certain to be in place that morning! Thomas

TheUnluckyTug in the first window of the coach
he actually pointed this out in his new Flying Scoutsman video
That’s SAH

Flying Scotsman + Alan Pegler for life!
Don't forget sir Nigel gresleay who designed her and Doncaster who built her
What a legend. A very well-deserved farewell despite being 6 years late.
Indeed, a great memory. Didn't help that Scotsman only returned to steam just over two years ago! Thomas
R.I.P. Alan Pegler. Without you, my favourite steam locomotive of all time would never be around with us all today.
He was a great man and we should be very greatful to him for saving this iconic locomotive. Thanks for viewing. Thomas

if he didnt rescue scotsman oh my scots might end up in the smelters without em

Thank you Alan pegler for saving flying scotsman from scrap Rest In Peace man ✌️ I love flying scotsman my all time steam locomotive in the world
Only A3 left in existence I believe, It has parts from a couple that got scrapped though I think
Lovely video! Glad to see flying Scotsman back on the mainline :D Austin
Thanks Austin. This was her 2nd to last tour of 2018 I believe, and probably my last time seeing her for the year. Thomas
he was cremated in scotsmans firebox
may he rest in peace
He wasn’t cremated in his firebox, they threw his ashes in the firebox, he had been cremated before that
3:18, as the whistle blow. Alan Pegler voice singed saying thank you for the years.

Another successful production Thomas 👍

Hi Thomas , Great introduction.Super filming . Regards...Dave
Thanks Dave, had a new mini flexible tripod, helped on the fence at Platform 1. Thomas
Excellent video :)
Thanks Sam. Thomas
Flying Scotsman won't be here without Alan Pegler
Excellent
Thank you Tony. Thomas
Nice shot
Thank you Terry. Thomas
Great video :)
Thanks Jake. Thomas
For once the diesel locomotive was not coupled to the train
Was very good to see it detached at Kings Cross and run the whole day with 60103 doing all the work, just like she did when steam was the norm! Thomas
