One of the world’s most famous locomotives, the Flying Scotsman was built in 1923 for a cost of £7,944 (over £491,000 in today’s money). It was the first locomotive to reach 100mph and travel the world. The delightful Flying Scotsman train is licensed from the National Railway Museum to Bigjigs and will zoom along a wooden rail track, either as a solo engine or with carriages attached to its magnetic coupling. It even has the famous Apple Green shade. Did you know that in the Second World War it got painted as wartime black before being green again? The Flying Scotsman is a wonderful realistic addition to any wooden train set! Magnetic couplings ensure the Flying Scotman’s compatibility with all other engines and carriages in the Bigjigs Rail range. Most other major wooden railway brands are compatible.
