The Valkyries, Crossover characters, and I were on our way to the National Railway Museum in York on an LNER bullet train.

Kiana: Patrick, why do you want to go to this particular museum anyway?

Patrick: Because I've been wanting to go for over a decade after watching several content of it on YouTube and seeing Thomas content creators from YouTube go to it. And because that's where famous steam locomotives are kept at. Like the famous A4 Mallard. It broke the world speed record going 126 miles per hour. There's also...

I kept talking about what's at the museum.

Miku: Talking like Hayato.

Himeko: Well he is a rail fan. So he would be this excited and would talk like that.

Miku: Yeah...

Seele: Even so. Look at these amazing sights of Britain's countrysides.

Mei: His mother wouldn't come with him and his father to the museum.

Bronya: In this FanFiction style, Patrick's with us.

Seele: He wants to see Britain's most famous steam locomotive. I believe it's called, Flying Scotsman?

Patrick: Yes that's right. Flying Scotsman. One of the first Steam Locomotives to hit 100 miles per hour like City of Truro did.

Miku: A rail fan just like Hayato.

Saber: Let's just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Everyone: Ok.

3 hours went by and we were finally at York Station.

Then we went up to the National Railway Museum and stars appeared in my eyes.

We were early and it wasn't open yet but 30 minutes went by then the doors finally opened then we instantly went inside. First we went to Station Hall where the montage started.

There different kinds of steam locomotives with coaches behind them. And most surprisingly in Station Hall was one of the very first steam engines.

Stephenson's Rocket.

Patrick: Didn't think this was here. I thought it was at some other museum from what YouTube said but now it's here.

Miku: Hayato would love to see this.

Next we went to the Great Hall.

And that's when stars appeared in my eyes again.

In my sights were trains like Mallard, Duchess of Sutherland, a Japanese Bullet Train/Shinkansen, and a replica of Stephenson's Rocket. We went all around and looked at all the engines in the museum then went into the North Shed where it had lots of artifacts and history of Flying Scotsman.

We had a break at the Cafe.

Then looked around more then went on the Mallard Experience where we experienced Mallard breaking the world speed record.

After that, we took a lunch break then went back inside the museum. The montage ended and the camera showed me and Miku in front of Mallard.

Patrick: After a decade of seeing content creators coming to the museum, I'm finally here. I've waited for this moment for years.

Miku: Yes you did.

Patrick: Now I'm seeing Mallard up close.

Miku: Hayato would've liked to see this too.

Patrick: He probably would. Especially the Shinkansen and Eurostar here.

Mei and Yae Sakura were by the Shinkansen.

Mei: A Japanese Shinkansen here all the way from Japan.

Yae Sakura: It's an old model and it's kind was retired and this one was was donated to this museum.

Saber: Well the British and Japanese have a good relationship with each other and do some of the same things.

Belfast: Both of us are English women.

Elizabeth: Same here!

Saber: Only I don't talk in a British accent like you do.

Jeanne: And I don't talk in a French accent.

Durandal and Rita were in the North Shed looking at the history of Flying Scotsman.

Rita: After steam ended, Flying Scotsman was originally owned by Alan Peglar for a decade until the locomotive was liquidated from him after the third USA tour in America failed and then Flying Scotsman was saved by Sir William McAlpine.

Durandal: Then Flying Scotsman went to Australia.

Fu Hua: Right now it's getting restored for its 100th Birthday next year.

Rita: Unfortunately it's not here getting restored. It's somewhere else getting restored.

The Lolis were at the play area while Blanc and Bronya were up at the Search Engine, reading books.

Neptune was popping up everywhere goofing off. Kiana was kind of doing the same thing. We were all enjoying ourselves at the museum.

Patrick: Beautiful place this museum is.

At 4:00 PM we were back on the bullet train going back to Kings Cross Station. Some of us have fallen asleep from walking all day.

Patrick: What a day it's been. It was worth it going to the museum. I didn't get to see Flying Scotsman or Tornado but at least I got to see the original Stephenson's Rocket and Mallard.

Miku: At least for you it was worth it.

Patrick: Walking around is good exercise like they say. Though it takes a toll on our legs.

Durandal: Great museum we went to.

Rita: Just like any other museum we went to before.

Kallen: Only with trains.

Patrick: I saw three people with plush toys and cameras. One person and two people separate. I think they were filming for YouTube.

Neptune: Maybe they were.

Seele: What a coincidence seeing them.

Miku: Anyone from YouTube you know?

Patrick: I think the one with the "Five Nights At Freddy's" plushies was "Mario Muffet Adventures". The other two with the 19th century clothing and dog plushie, I don't know. One of them complimented my 611 hat liking it and I said thank you. I don't know if he knows about 611 or does not know about 611 but he liked my hat.

I looked out the window, then at sleeping Kiana next to me, then at my Hornby model of Flying Scotsman.

Patrick: I finally have my own model of Flying Scotsman. There were amazing models of trains in the glass cases at both gift shops. Can't wait to run it when I get home.

I looked out the window again as the camera zoomed out as the bullet train passed by the sign where Mallard broke the world speed record as the sun was setting.

When we got Kings Cross Station, the Valkyries and I went back to our hotel separating from the crossover characters.

When we got back to the hotel, we laid down on our beds.

Patrick: What a day it's been. My wish finally came true. I finally got to go to the National Railway Museum in York after a whole decade of knowing about it.

Mei: What's on for tomorrow?

Himeko: A bus tour then Hard Rock Cafe and then Buckingham Palace.

Bronya: Sounds great.

Patrick: Going to my third Hard Rock Cafe after going to the ones in Los Angeles and New York City.

Theresa: And with free mini cards we can get free souvenirs and free hot fudge brownie sundaes!

Kiana: REALLY?!

Theresa: Yes!

Everyone: Alright!

Himeko: Let's rest now. We better recharge for tomorrow.

Everyone: Goodnight.

So we turned off the lights, got under the blankets, then went to sleep for another day tomorrow.
