Caveat: It's just possible there are multiple companies with similar names. It's odd that their own website does not mention The Flying Scotsman project, but internal WP links go to this article.Mcewan (

The Flying Scotsman restoration was this company, and there is coverage in the BBC, Guardian, Independent, Daily Mail and any number of specialist railway publications. I will ad some references to the article.

Delete as the listed links above are simply local news stories and listings, nothing for a genuine substance here and nothing to suggest there would also be the sufficient improvements, so although it may be locally known, there's nothing to suggest a convincing encyclopedia article.

Delete -- a vanity page / catalogue; not something that belongs in an encyclopedia, but on the company web site.

Keep. A company that really exists, and actually makes things that move. No bad sourcing on the article page has been pointed out. Then the nom comes along saying Non-notable engineering company [a]. Only ping on Google is ...[b] as decisive negatives. Just those two arguments for deleting?! Well, [a] is a personal opinion so useless, and [b] is a non-RS measurement. Unless there is something I did not notice (pls tell me), this XfD is bad-tempered by origin. -

Keep - plenty of references can be found in Railway Magazine, Steam Railway, etc., so easily meets
WP:GNG.
