Tornado 60163 overtaken by diesel railcar @ Peterborough. ECML steam race. 16 Aug 10

I expect the passengers in the Railcar got a superb view of Tornado!

@SatNavDan They were probably cheering the driver on.

Funny vid. Lucky she takes it back over.

@DotsandTom That's because the dogbox had to slow down for the Spalding line at Werrington Junction.

Nice vid - not surprising that Tornado was overtaken as she was pulling about 13 coaches and that's a lot of tons to accelerate!! :-)

[KINGANDCASTLE]

@HughFromAlice Yes but it was funny to watch

[EastMidlandsSteam]

haha even worse it was a dogbox :P

[KINGANDCASTLE]

@EastMidlandsSteam Lucky dog, it got to overtake Tornado!

[TheWelly888]

@KINGANDCASTLE These dogboxes are also nicknamed Tin Rockets, Scuds or Doodlebugs because they have a 400hp engine under them!

@TheWelly888 Doodlebugs date back to WW2
