IT'S the moment lots of you have all been waiting for - the Flying Scotsman finally made its way to Somerset.

There were plenty of people poised to capture the moment the iconic train pulled into Taunton, shortly after 5.30pm this evening (May 23).

The exact arrival times were removed from the internet after several trespassing incidents last week.

British Transport Police reminded people to stay off the tracks and watch the train from a safe distance.

Lots of you were over at the new railway bridge - formerly known as 40 steps - by the sorting office to spot the train.

After blowing off a little steam, it then made its way to Norton Fitzwarren before going on to Bishops Lydeard.

The train will be taking a lucky few on tours this Friday, May 26, before returning in September for another stint.
