A variety of railtours are included as well as the legendary Jacobite train, renowned as the ‘Hogwarts Express’ in the Harry Potter films, and the twenty-one-arched Glenfinnan Viaduct, also made famous in those films. A splendid array of locomotives is showcased, including the celebrated Flying Scotsman, pictured crossing the UNESCO heritage site of the Forth Bridge near Edinburgh. Also, just over the border from Scotland, the Royal Border Bridge which carries the East Coast mainline into Berwick-upon-Tweed is pictured.Capturing the bygone era of steam and the stunning landscapes of Scotland, Steam on Scottish Metals is a must for those rail fans nostalgic for the heady days of steam north of the border.
