TIM SAYS:
This piece originally began as an idea based on a different railway station, and it was only when I discovered that 2023 is the centenary of the Flying Scotsman that I decided to move the location to York.
This now-celebrated locomotive used to run between London King's Cross and Edinburgh Waverley, and York was one of only a handful of stations on the line at which it stopped. The steps, pillar, bridge, wooden cabin and clock, though facelifted, are all still there, and the staff at the National Railway Museum were extremely helpful with my research into how it would have looked in the mid-twentieth century.
I photographed the engine on its centenary tour of heritage railways in March 2023, then set about imagining the stories it could tell....
