Dream of Flying Scotsman Engine Realized by Buyer
Alan Pegler bought the Flying Scotsman locomotive for 2000 pounds to preserve it for future generations. He plans to drive it next Monday on a 190 mile run, hoping to honor its history and his boyhood dream. The engine, built in 1923 for 4000 pounds, has logged about two million miles and may become the first steam engine to reach 100 miles per hour in service.
