It is a route between London in England and Edinburgh. "The Route of the Flying Scotsman comprises 390 miles (627 km) of East Coast Main Line, between London Kings Cross and Edinburgh Waverley. The East Coast Main Line was not built in once piece, but grew with the ambitions of three Victorian railway companies. The section between London Kings Cross and Doncaster was built by the Great Northern Railway and opened in 1853. The North Eastern Railway built the section between Doncaster and Berwick, but the current route was not opened until 1876. The North British Railway built the line between Berwick and Edinburgh in 1846." http://www.nrm.org.uk/flyingscotsman/index.asp Jul 03 07, 8:14 AM
