Years later with the nationalisation of the railways the locomotive's feat was not forgotten, with 'Mallard' maintaining its celebrity status among the trainspotters of the day while continuing to haul express passenger trains along the East Coast Mainline.  This Train Set encapsulates the enduring allure of 'Mallard' as it would have appeared during the early 1950s in British Railways Express Blue Livery with matching Crimson and Cream (or Blood and Custard to some) Gresley coaching stock.
