Written on my silent electric ukulele during a fast train journey between London and the Lake District. It evokes the blurred scenery whizzing past my window. Near the end is a short solo on the Bottleneck Drum which I invented,; this represents the train approaching, crossing and leaving a big set of points at a major junction.

The title track of my 2nd solo album from 2005, a musical portrait of the world famous 1930s Flying Scotsman steam locomotive at full speed. The cover features a daft cartoon of Flying Scotsman with human legs instead of wheels to run along the rails. The daft liner notes say that it is how FS looked during the Great Coal Strike of 1796 !
