The 1E05 10:00 Edinburgh - King's Cross 'The Flying Scotsman' service rounds the curve beneath York's overall roof on what is believed to be the 20th September 1972 with, it is thought, Haymarket's 9000 "ROYAL SCOTS GREY" in charge.

The photo was first credited to 9013 but this particular locomotive was 1A31 16:22 Harrogate-King's Cross through Newark on September 20th and as 9000 worked 1L37 19:05 King's Cross - Bradford on the 20th (1E05's balance) it is thought to be 9000 in the photo.
