  • I remember on Mother's day 2009 when I saw it pass through Leeds station. I thought it was a phantom train as no-one seemed to be phased by it apart from myself. It was magnificent.

  • @04jhowarth It is a truly magnificent sight. I have seen Tornado quite a few times since and i am still very impressed.

  • Glad you like Tornado. As you say she is a beautiful engine. Thanks for commenting.

  • Thanks for your comment. It was a nice sight together with those Royal coaches.

  • disappointed by the 67 on rear. but overall a good train especially the royal coaches

  • Thank for the comments. Not much better stock than those royal coaches.
