Several people have been injured after the Flying Scotsman steam locomotive was involved in a low-speed crash with another heritage train in the Scottish Highlands. The National Railway Museum said the “shunting incident” took place at Aviemore Station in the Cairngorms national park on Friday. The station is home to a heritage train line that takes visitors on steam train rides in northern Scotland. Emergency workers were alerted Friday “to reports of a collision” involving two trains at Aviemore. Two people were hospitalized as a precaution. Three others were treated at the scene. The Belmond and Strathspey Railway said the Flying Scotsman locomotive was being coupled with stationary Royal Scotsman train carriages when the collision took place.
