The Scottish people (Scots: Scots Fowk, Scottish Gaelic: Albannaich), or Scots, are a nation and socially defined ethnic group resident in Scotland. Historically, they emerged from an amalgamation of two groups—the Picts and Gaels—who founded the Kingdom of Scotland (or Alba) in the 9th century, and thought to have been ethnolinguistically Celts. Later, the neighbouring Cumbrian Britons, who also spoke a Celtic language, as well as Germanic-speaking Anglo-Saxons and Norse, were incorporated into the Scottish nation.
In modern use, "Scottish people" or "Scots" is used to refer to anyone whose linguistic, cultural, family ancestral or genetic origins are from within Scotland. The Latin word Scotti originally referred to the Gaels but came to describe all inhabitants of Scotland. Though sometimes considered archaic or pejorative, the term Scotch has also been used for the Scottish people, though this usage is current primarily outside Scotland.
There are people of Scottish descent in many countries other than Scotland. Emigration, influenced by factors such as the Highland and Lowland Clearances, Scottish participation in the British Empire, and latterly industrial decline and unemployment, resulted in Scottish people being found throughout the world. Large populations of Scottish people settled the new-world lands of North and South America, Australia and New Zealand. There is a Scottish presence at a particularly high level in Canada, which has the highest level per-capita of Scots descendants in the world and second largest population of descended Scots ancestry after the United States. They took with them their Scottish languages and culture.

Thomas The Tank Trackmaster toy trains from Thomas & Friends movie The Great Race. This unboxing toy review will study Trophy Thomas, Flying Scotsman and Shooting Star Gordon (Streamlined Gordon). On the Trackmaster turntable these new Thomas toys look amazing. Even more fun when Thomas The Tank gets the huff and crashes Gordon off the rails. As we all know accidents can happen. The really nice aspect to these Thomas toys are new custom faces that make the trains look fast. The rolling stock is also very nice with these Thomas Trackmaster toys with some using gears driven from the wheels to spin the Gold trophy or wave flags. I also look over the Trackmaster Real Steam Thomas. The only one I have found had broken boxing and I was able to get a 10% discount at Toys R Us. But this Thomas end...

The film made by Alan Pegler in 1963 when he saved the class A3 locomotive, BR 60103 (LNER 1472, 4472, 502, 103) Flying Scotsman from being sold for scrap. The film documents the final journey under BR ownership from London to Doncaster, the overhaul at Doncaster, and the first runs of the locomotive in preservation. In 1923, an engine numbered 1472 was built. It was the first engine to be built for and run under the newly formed London and North Eastern Railway. In 1924, 1472 was named after the popular England to Scotland express that had been running since the 1860s, Flying Scotsman. The engine was also renumbered as 4472, the number that most people associate with the engine. Originally a Gresley A1, Flying Scotsman would become the first steam locomotive to run non-stop between the ...
WOW! You never thought you'd see the Flying Scotsman on the IC82 channel, did you? But here she is! And in wartime black too. Personally, I adore this livery and I think it looks incredibly smart. Thankfully, the model did not disappoint. Enjoy!
