A large, 2.5" gauge engineered model of the famous Flying Scotsman locomotive, LNER running number 4472.
The model has been living upstairs in Brighton Station, and was in a glass cabinet set into the wall of the bus ticket office, before the station's 2013 remodelling.
The model's stand has a plaque commemorating the Flying Scotsman's visit to Brighton Station in 1966.
