The restoration of an historic locamotive is coming to an end at the National Railway Museum in Shildon in County Durham.

The new paintwork is almost complete on the Dominion of Canada. It is to go on show in York in July with its famous sister train Mallard and four other A 4 locomotives.

It is the first time all six will have been together and it is being dubbed "the Great Gathering" by rail enthusiasts.
