Gave me goosebumps! Saw Tornado when she was at the GCR. My uncle was very impressed with her!

Why was this test run at night?

You're right about that whistle.I saw the vid with sound earlier today. It sounded superb!!
-
Easy mistake to make in the dark mate! Who cares anyway, might as well have been another 4 coaches, just along for the ride !
-
Cos we had to reverse round a tight turn at Newcastle for the return trip, so the 63 pulled us

Fantastic Matt. Glad I'm not the only one who thought that it was a HST unit on the back lol.

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it....Matt.

The class 67 was put on to assist with shunting at both ends off the trip, and as a bit of a saftey net incase of problems...Matt.

Terrific sound and spectacle - I reckon they must have had a third crew member in there just dangling on the chime whistle all night long. :-) Thanks for the post.

Cheers mate, that whistle is ace! Not usually into a chime, bit of a "Stanier man" you see ! But on this beast, perfection !...Matt.
