A HEADBOARD "THE NIGHT SCOTSMAN". This impressive 3-line cast aluminium headboard has a restored face and an ex-loco back with "Haymarket" lettered in original red paint. Successor to the "Night Scotsman" London to Edinburgh sleeping car train which started in the Edwardian era, it was one of the most famous trains of the East Coast Main Line. Unlike many named trains, it retained its title during the Second World War, and post-War it ran non-stop to Newcastle from Kings Cross leaving at 10.15 p.m.
