Gold Medal Ales are produced monthly
in recognition of some of the 'greats' of history. Locomotive 4472 rolled out of Doncaster works on 24th February 1923. A year later it was named Flying Scotsman and used for heading the Flying Scotsman trains between London & Edinburgh. This iconic engine was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, technically a Scotsman but descended from an ancient Norman family domiciled in South Derbyshire. It was the first steam locomotive to top 100 m.p.h. A few adventures and bankruptcies later it has ended it's days at York Railway Museum as a tribute to Gresley's genius However if you can read the barstand you must agree that he made a great contribution to speedwriting. |
