Cash plea for iconic steam engine

The iconic Flying Scotsman steam engine will be back on the rails by 2010 if a further £250,000 is raised to complete its restoration.

The engine is currently undergoing a major overhaul at the National Railway Museum (NRM) in York.

The museum bought the locomotive for £2m in 2004 and has since stripped it down for renovation and repair work.

If we can waste billions on Banks and Northern rock this is a pittance very well spent.
