60163 Tornado ERUPTS out of Bristol Temple Meads!!!! 5.7.09

This is the part where the exciting bit happens!! Firstly she acts like a tornado by letting off a load of steam. Then she departs Bristol not just with a good whistle but a HUGE cloud of steam which sounded sooo piercing!! It was so thick I couldn't even see what I was doing and as you can see it covered my lens in water!!! The most magnificent departure I have ever had in my life!!!
ENJOY!!!!!

@dealbeach Lol they hang out the side because, of the accoustics you hear from the loco alot clearer than sitting down when all windows are closed

[dealbeach]

Why is it that on every loco hauled train, there are always loads of anoracks hanging out of the windows, even when it's minus 20 outside..??? Hope they get their heads knocked off.

@EastMidlandsSteam

They have both, you stand on the footplate in the cab.

Is it just me or could you hear the footplate crew laughing at the guys recording on the platform as the engine goes past?

[EastMidlandsSteam]

@SteamYouth On the footplate you mean, A1 pacifics along with every other steamer dont have cabs :P
