SUMMARY:The Famous ‘Flying Scotsman’ - Marketing\, Circumstance and Chance
DESCRIPTION:An Online Lecture from Bob GwynneIn the UK approximately 110\,000 steam locomotives were built\, but just one seems to be universally known amongst the British public. Author\, curator and Flying Scotsman expert Bob Gwynne will attempt to answer the question as to why the ‘Flying Scotsman’ is so famous. \nExpect unusual images and ‘people’ stories that cover more than 90 years of ‘marketing\, circumstance and chance’ in a lively presentation that will provide some insight as to why the 3rd ‘A1’ locomotive built by the LNER for a specific job\, became a ‘UK plc’ brand as familiar as HP Sauce and Big Ben. \nAbout the Speaker\nBob Gwynne is an outstanding speaker from the National Railway Museum in York and author of a book on the Flying Scotsman. It is a topic that needs no introduction! \nThe event will be hosted by Jonathan Aylen – President of the Newcomen Society \nQuestions may be submitted via email before the lecture to events@newcomen.com or via Zoom chat during the lecture. \nBooking information:\nTickets are free but subject to availability and are only available in advance through Eventbrite.
