Ever dreamed of sitting in Flying Scotsman's driver's seat?
Take this rare opportunity to climb aboard and imagine yourself as the driver in charge of the controls. Our knowledgeable guides will tell you all about the inner workings of this famous locomotive.
This activity is free. Pre-booking online is recommended.
Under-12s will need to be accompanied by a responsible adult at all times.
Participants must be able to use steps to access the cab.
Flying Scotsman will be positioned on the platform next to Main Hall from Tuesday 20 August – Wednesday 21 August. This will be an opportunity for visitors using wheelchairs to get a closer look at the locomotive's cab. Please note however it is still necessary to climb the cab steps to enter Flying Scotsman.
Want to have a truly memorable experience? Book a Flying Scotsman footplate ride for some one-on-one time with the driver as it pulls our passenger steam rides.
