Description

Second only to Flying Scotsman in terms of iconic status, LNER Class A4 '4468' Mallard has to be one of the most beautiful and significant locomotives ever to have been built. She is seen here preserved at the National Railway Museum at York. 

Not content in being one of the most beautiful locomotives built in Britain, she is also significant in the fact that she is the holder of the world speed record for steam locomotives. 
Built at Doncaster in March of 1938, she broke the record just a few months later on July 3rd 1938, reaching the speed of 126 mph
