The Flying Scotsman will be visiting Sussex’s Bluebell Railway as part of celebrations for the locomotive’s 100th anniversary.
The train will be offering trips along the 11-mile heritage railway over two weeks, which offers views across the South Downs.
The event promises an educational day out for the whole family, with train stations transporting passengers to different time periods from the past 150 years.
The historic train will be stopping at Sheffield Park, Horsted Keynes, Kingscote and East Grinstead.
Visitors will be able to learn more about the history of the Bluebell Railway at Sheffield Park station, which houses an accredited museum, a working signal-box exhibit and an interactive learning experience.
The visit by the Flying Scotsman is part of a nationwide tour, which will see it take scenic trips across the country, with stops in Portsmouth, Lancashire, Cardiff and along its route from London up to the East Scottish coastline.
Passengers can take a ride on the locomotive this summer from August 14 to 31.
February 24 will mark 100 years since the Flying Scotsman first entered service on the London King’s Cross to Edinburgh route.
