On a wet and gloomy 30th December LNER 'A1' pacific 4-6-2 No:60163 'Tornado' is seen heading 'The William Shakespeare' rail tour up Wilcote bank out of Stratford-on-Avon on its way back to London Paddington. The rostered motive power for the trip was GWR 'King' class 4-6-0 No:6024 'King Edward I' but this was replaced by the 'A1' due to gauging problems.
