Due to the fact that my dad has managed to break a bone in his foot, meaning no transport because I can't drive, this is more than likely the last gala I attend this year but it was a good gala to finish on. The gala celebrated the visit of A1 No 60163 Torando and also the return to steam of Black Five No 45337. The weather was poor for most of the day but it did brighten up in the afternoon. The highlight of the gala was the double headed combo of Nos 60163 Tornando and 71000 Duke of Gloucester which is seen in this vid. Locations included in this vid are Bury Bolton Street, Irwell Vale and various locations around Summerseat including Brooksbottom viaduct.
