London and Northeastern Railway

The London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) was a major British railway company established in 1923, serving northeastern England, parts of Scotland, and surrounding regions. Created during the grouping of railways, it operated numerous passenger and freight services, including iconic trains like the Flying Scotsman. LNER was known for its efficient network, advanced locomotives, and contribution to transportation during its era. In 1948, it was nationalized, becoming part of British Railways. Today, its legacy is remembered through preserved locomotives, historic routes, and the impact it had on rail travel in the UK.
