Ezy942, there is a web page with all the time tables of steam loco trips in the area but I have mis-laid the address. I only knew of the Tornado last minute as one of our customers worked on it and he gave me the info. Regards Beemer.

Is that the same loco that was featured on Top Gear a while ago? Clarkson was in the steamer, the hamster was on a Black shadow and Captain Slow was in an old Jag I think.

Here's a shot I took of it outside the NRM in the snow in February last year - before it had received its Tornado nameplates.  Cheers, Dave |
