First Bus in Doncaster will run a dedicated Park n Ride service to the the Flying Scotsman event on 11 and 12 November

On 11 and 12 November the Flying Scotsman will be returning to its birthplace of Doncaster for a special visit to mark its 100^th birthday.

The Flying Scotsman will be based at the Freightliner Rail Port, Decoy Bank South, and we will be providing a special bus service to get you there, as there will be no parking on the site.

First Bus will be running a service from the Park and Ride at White Rose Way every 15 minutes, and an additional service from Frenchgate interchange every 20 minutes – taking visitors straight to the Rail port.

Fares will be £3 return for adults, and £2 for children. Concessions will not be accepted on this service.

Peter Mair, Operations Manager at First Bus in Doncaster said: “As there is no parking at the site, we wanted to ensure visitors had the facility to travel to and from the Rail port, to join in the celebration and enjoy the occasion without worrying about how they could get to the event. We are expecting the Park & Ride service to be busy, so please allow a little extra time when planning your journey.”

Tickets for the event will be made available from Monday 2 October, for more information about the event, please visit the Doncaster Council’s website here: A wonderful weekend to see Flying Scotsman in Doncaster - City of Doncaster Council
