The Flying Scotsman Centenary Programme is here:-

Flying Scotsman centenary programme | National Railway Museum

and there are a number of excursions, the first one being today to Cardiff.

Searching YouTube there are a number of videos showing the train along the route, some random examples of which are below.

What I want to know is, where on the route near Cardiff did they manage to turn the whole train around so that the class 47 actually brings the train into Cardiff.
