A digital drawing depicting the steam locomotive Flying Scotsman as it went through changes in its appearance between 1925-1962. Starting life in 1923 as a Class A1 number 1472 in with a low sided tender, right-hand drive, rounded steam collector and single chimney. Finishing its service in January 1963 as a left-hand drive Class A3 with the elongated "banjo" dome, double chimney, smoke deflectors, streamlined tender and number 60103.

A digital drawing depicting the steam locomotive Flying Scotsman as it would have been seen Circa 1925. The locomotive was built in 1923, numbered 1472 and had no name. It was renumbered 4472 and given the name "Flying Scotsman" just before it represented LNER as its flagship locomotive at the British Empire Exhibition, at Wembley Park in 1924. It represented LNER again at the 1925 exhibition and this artwork depicts Flying Scotsman as it would have appeared, with its number on the low sided tender and the LNER crest on the cab.

A digital drawing depicting the steam locomotive Flying Scotsman as it would have been seen Circa 1930. This is the classic image of Flying Scotsman with the letters LNER on the tender and 4472 on the cab. From 1928 to 1936 Flying Scotsman had a corridor tender giving the crew access to the locomotive from the train. This enabled it to travel the 392 miles from London to Edinburgh in eight hours changing the crew without stopping. By 1936 the non-stop service was being carried out by the streamlined A4s and Flying Scotsman reverted to a non-corridor tender.

In 1954 it was converted to left hand drive with the vacuum exhaust ejector pipe and the reversing rod moved to the left-hand side from the right and painted in BR green. In 1959 the chimney was replaced with a double chimney and in 1961 the smoke deflectors were added. Flying Scotsman ended service with its last scheduled run on 14 January 1963.

At this time it was allocated to Leicester Central shed running the Nottingham Victoria to London Marylebone services.

Flying Scotsman LNER number 4472 became the first steam locomotive to be officially authenticated at a speed of 100 MPH on the 30th November 1934 on a special test run. Unofficially the GWR locomotive 3440 City of Truro was timed at running in excess of 100 mph during a run from Plymouth to London in 1904.
