...Probably the finest headboard ever to grace a titled train was the golden winged thistle of the 10:00 King's Cross to Edinburgh, and alternate 10:00 Edinburgh to King's Cross "The Flying Scotsman" services. Here D9006 proudly sports the accolade as it runs through York on the 6th March 1967 with the up 10:00 Edinburgh - King's Cross train. The headboard was introduced on the 9th March 1964 and D9006 was the first to be adorned with the up service on that day...
