Both Flying Scotsman and Sir Nigel Gresley will be joining up to attend a special event in Doncaster next month (20th June).

The event is being run by Wabtec UK and City of Doncaster Council to celebrate the contribution of the Doncaster site to the UK railway industry.

Doncaster is the birthplace of both Flying Scotsman and Sir Nigel Gresley, and Wabtec wants to recognise the achievements of the site as it approaches the end of its operational journey later this year.

60007 Sir Nigel Gresley will be in steam for the event, with Flying Scotsman on static display alongside Class 37s, Class 56s and a Class 58.

The event will also have shunting demonstrations with other displays and stands from groups and societies.

Tickets will go on sale on the 11th May 2026 and will be for two timed slots, 10 am until 2 pm and 2 pm until 6 pm.

“The work of Sir Nigel Gresley has created a lasting legacy for Doncaster’s railway industry, and I am delighted that this special event will celebrate the 150th anniversary of the birth of an iconic steam locomotive engineer. I hope many people enjoy the splendid displays.”

Mayor of Doncaster, Ros Jones
