About This Image

The steam locomotive Princess Elizabeth was built at Crewe in 1933, In 1936 she made national headlines with the fastest non-stop journey by a steam train from London to Glasgow, averaging 70mph over the 400 miles, a record that is unlikely to be broken. Here she takes a packed excursion to Scarborough from Liverpool ..
