Description

Steam locomotive Flying Scotsman is a star object in the National Railway Museum's National Collection. A beacon of modern achievement, Flying Scotsman epitomises the golden age of British ingenuity, invention and craftsmanship.

The locomotive turns 100 in 2023 and the centenary will be a celebration of the world's most famous steam engine, honouring this cultural icon through an exciting calendar of events, stunts, and breath-taking moments.

The centenary will be delivered on site at NRM and Locomotion, and off-site across Great Britain as we take Flying Scotsman back to key historic locations. Engaging with families to discover the stories of the last 100 years, we will build Flying Scotsman's legacy for a new generation.

We are looking for a strategic partner to create and deliver the PR strategy for the opening events of the centenary celebrations.
