Flying Scotsman steams through Hinckley during celebrations

The Flying Scotsman has been captured steaming through stations across the Midlands as it celebrates its centenary.

Footage showed it passing through Leicestershire town Hinckley as part of a special Christmas service.

In June, the 97-tonne locomotive returned to Doncaster, where it was built in 1923.

The world-famous steam locomotive has been restored ahead of events to mark its birthday.
