Yesterdays Express and Star carried a 3 column 8 inch article on Flying Scotsman visiting the SVR as part of the Autumn gala. It will roar into the SVR from Sept 22nd to 25th.
The article is headed by a 3 column 5 inch photo of Scotsman crossing the Forth Bridge, and headed "Flying Scotsman on its way"

The BBC Midlands News last night included an item on Scotsman's visit to Tyseley (including footage of the reporter squeezing through the tender corridor), then comments on the visit to SVR.
