The Deltic And A4 Combo- Perfection! - Edinburgh Christmas Market - 23/11/23.

* Before you say it, yes I'm aware I named the video The Edinburgh Flyer in the intros*
On the 23rd of November 2023, Steam Dreams ran its Edinburgh Christmas Market tour from London Kings Cross to Edinburgh in Scotland for four days
D9000 Royal Scots Grey ran the tour from London Kings Cross to York, we see the tour race through Doncaster.
A4 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley takes over at York for the run-up to Scotland, we see her passing through Northallerton not long after leaving York, felt bad for anyone on platform two though, with the Grand Central train just clearing the platform, if Gresley had been going faster, it would have passed through before.
I hope you enjoy this video.
