  • lovely! wow i never knew a steam engine could take off that fast! so what are her colors going to be? green apple?

  • After running in at the gcr she is getting painted lner apple green. The plan then is every 2 years to paint her in a different livery that the a1's carried. I think its br blue next.

  • @yourmamaluigi most british locomotives can take off fast

  • @Typhoon6666 ANY steam locomotive can do that when running light.

  • Such A Beautiful Engine.. Its Good To See Her Back In Great Health.

  • @steamvids it has British Railways on its tender :P

  • Bachmann have already!

    A loco that unites our both countries.

    Boiler: German

    Loco: British

    Result: Beautiful!

  • amazing.other new build projects like the F5 im looking forward 2

  • On 7th July 2008, when on holiday in Teesdale, my wife & I visited the "Head of Steam", the railway museum in Darlington. From the car park, I took photos of a 'strange' loco on the track behind. It was this loco in its workshop livery. From the last frame in the video it looks as though it had not moved since. As I do not own a camcorder, yet, it is nice to see it move.

  • No its a totally different class of locomotive. Scotsman was an A1 when built but the lner changed the names of the classes so scotsman became A3 and the class tornado is being built to A1
