'Doncaster Works’ is one of a series of 12 books being released in 2025 showcasing railway works and centres to commemorate ‘Railway 200’.

For more than 125 years Doncaster Works constructed locomotives for the Great Northern Railway, then as a part of the London & North Eastern Railway and finally British Railways. It was from here that the Stirling ‘Singles’, Ivatt’s Atlantics and Gresley’s Pacifics including the famous Flying Scotsman and the world speed holder for steam, Mallard, emerged. The final locomotives to be constructed on site were the BR-built-Diesel-electric Classes 56 and 58 – today only carriage and refurbishment takes place in a town once famous for producing Gresley’s ‘racehorses’ and ‘streaks for the east coast route from London to Edinburgh.
