LNER Peppercorn A1 Class loco no 60163 "Tornado" pulls The Cathedrals Express steam excursion from Chertsey to Ely on 12th December 2011.

The train was a charter for passengers to attend the Christmas carol service in Ely Cathedral.

We wee the train leaving Chertsey at 7.45 in the morning, then just over an hour later passing Abinger Hammer, at Hackhurst Farm.

"Tornado" is a new-build steam locomotive, completed in 2009 after a 20 year project to recreate the Peppercorn A1 Class, all of which had been scrapped in the 1960's.

  • nice vid

  • Two lovely clips. What a superb engine. Barry

  • I particularly enjoyed the shot with the sun backlighting the train. Thanks!

  • Nice shots. It was a good run with 60163 and the climb away from Shalford was very impressive with the load of 13 she had on the drawbar.

  • You did well to get form Chertsey to Abbinger Hammer at that time in the morning. The sun was lovely in the hills wasn't it, check out my clip at Albury
