World ferrous rail engine gets a new lease of life
Britain's Flying Scotsman, the first steam locomotive to hit 100 miles an hour, returned to the tracks on Friday following a decade-long project to restore the world-famous engine.
Steaming and whistling, the legendary locomotive made its first test run after 1.2 million ($6.1 million) full-scale restoration.
