At the end of this month, the Great Central Railway is hosting a fundraising event while offering guests the opportunity to see Flying Scotsman.

The Reunification fundraising evening takes place on the 28th May and features dining, steam travel and a chance to be up close to Flying Scotsman.

The one-night-only service will be hauled by Tornado, and guests will return to Ruddington engine sheds for part of the event.

Guests will dine next to Flying Scotsman and have the opportunity for photos and footplate access.

The event will have live entertainment, a raffle and an auction with BBC correspondent Tom Ingall in attendance.

Any money raised will go to reunifying the railway, and they are welcoming donations of any size.

Tickets for the unique event are priced at £145 and can be found on their website.

“We’re incredibly excited to be able to offer something this special. The Flying Scotsman is a true icon of British engineering, and the chance to dine right alongside it is something very few people will ever experience.”

Andy Fillingham, Chairman of Great Central Railway, Nottingham
