The Flying Scotsman


Here we are dancing a Scottish Country dance. It's called The Flying Scotsman. The Flying Scotsman was a famous steam locomotive which ran between Edinburgh and London for many years. In 1934 it was the first steam train to break the 100 mph barrier. It was restored in 1999 and again carried passengers north from London.
When we are dancing, the two leaders are the engine and the rest of us are the carriages. The noises we are making are the noises of a steam train.
